...play Quake, you might need some new hardware. Quake runs on high-end 486 machines with at least 8 megabytes of RAM--but just barely. And you can't run Quake on Macintosh computers or older 486 machines without floating processor units, like the 486-SX models...
Following Davis's bucket, URI's Erin Fuller grabbed her only offensive rebound of the game and layed the ball in for a one-point Ram lead. Capitalizing on some costly Harvard turnovers and sloppy defensive play, URI spread the wealth as five different run, which was highlighted by junior Tasha King's three-point play...
Powerful applications require lots of Random Access Memory (RAM). Minimum requirements for most operating systems plus applications are at least 16 megabytes of RAM. Presumably, a dumb computer on a network using modularized applications will mean the demise of RAM-hungry applications. Assuming this is true and that a dumb PC only requires about 8 megabytes of RAM, this is still about...
That's undoubtedly true. Card issuers mailed out 2.1 billion solicitations in 1994, enough for eight cards for every American, according to RAM Research, a Maryland consulting firm. But with debt already weighing down many consumers, those invitations to spend are more likely than ever to go straight into the trash can, along with a stack of mail-order catalogs...
That isn't to say memory compression itself is a pipe dream. On the contrary, the technology is real, and Syncronys is not the only company to have cashed in on its appeal. But neither of SoftRAM 95's top competitors--Connectix's RAM Doubler and Quarterdeck's MagnaRAM2--can boast sales approaching SoftRAM 95's 650,000 copies. And while some have complained about the speed of the other products, neither has been targeted for the kind of virulent attacks mounted against SoftRAM...
