Reducing the Workbench display to 4 colours and hi res (640x256) helps.
Looks awful, of course.
No background pattern, either.
Use Topaz font, not one that will take up more RAM.
But 2 Megs really is a tight fit. With 3 Megs, you can do a lot,
especially if you stick with older programs (eg Pro Page instead of
Pagestream).
