Photoshop uses a "scratch disk" to simulate ram that is completely apart 
from any paging that the o/s does. Try making a volume that's 20M and 
copying PhotoShop into that volume. Then running Photoshop should work.

Give it a try and let me know the results. I'd sure like to be able to 
run Photoshop.
