I'm NOT thinking small. I'm thinking efficiency. You are talking 6 full orders of magnitude in terms of access time. If you have the money to pay for 25 GB of hard disk, I'm sure you have the money to afford a motherboard that can take over 1 GB of RAM. Even if 1 GB of RAM is way more expensive than 25 GB of HD, it's not 6 orders of magnitude more expensive. Marcelo
