- As has been already mentioned, you can use Optima from Connectix to get
- your 32-bit addressing, but if you have that much memory, you should
- probably use System 7 anyway. If your programs are compatible with 32-bit
- addressing, then you should have no problems with System 7, since 32-bit
- addressing is a very strong test of System 7 compatibility. I realize that
- speed might be a problem, but if that is really the case, than you have
- bigger problems than getting 32-bit addressing turned on, since you have so
- much memory, but not very much computing power. :)
