VIRTUAL
Now you can get the benefits of additional virtual memory on PowerBooks. Virtual is the new generation of Connectix’ sward-winning virtual memory product line. On the PowerBook, Virtual provides the unprecedented ability to stretch limited RAM and hard drive memory.
Virtual’s DiskSaver let you use only the amount of hard drive space needed to create the additional memory you want. That keeps more of your PowerBook’s hard drive available for your work.
Virtual is battery savings savvy. It automatically turns itself off when the PowerBook is on battery to save power.
MAXIMA
Extend your PowerBook’s battery life using Maxima’s RAM disk. Because your hard disk drains so much battery power, this RAM disk is an ideal solution for maximing battery life by keeping the drive spun down.
This RAM disk survives system crashes, shutdowns and restarts. Information that has been changed since the last Shutdown is automatically copied back to your hard drive before you shut off your Mac.
And by automatically copying your startup files, Maxima’s RAM disk can reduce restart time, accelerate many routine operations and speed up memory-intensive applications. Macintosh systems with exactly 8MB of memory can also take advantage of the RAM disk by using it under System 7 in 32-bit addressing mode.
