- If you install TuneUp 1.1.1, the Finder will ask you if you
- want to quit apps with no open windows if there isn't enough
- memory for the app you want to launch. This seems to solve your
- problem, since presumably if there are open windows in the
- background app your users, however naive, will be able to quit
- it themselves.
