To avoid any further confusion: by saying "512 de facto" I was referring to the newly produced machines, be that any factory or home assembled PCs or Macs. Clearly, one would not upgrade an old firewall to have out of a sudden 512MB of RAM. But if you are building a new one, I doubt that you'll find it economically feasible to buy a DDR module <=256MB. > > making this even lack of tune-up even more unacceptable. > > Well, if you think you can do better than the default, you can look > at machdep.c and work out how to adjust it. Yes, now that Hannah showed me the option, I'll do just that. :-) Cheers, Constantine.
