What!? I always thought we could just download more RAM!
 help



on Linux you can actually do that by enabling zram https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zram


Connectix was a big deal in its day. RAM Doubler was considered essential software.

They also marketed the first webcam, and made emulators mainstream. Their PlayStation emulator is the basis for the case law that says emulators are fair use, decided as a result of a suit from Sony.


> RAM was expensive at the time. For example, an 8 MB stick cost $300.

So why you’re saying is that it could be worse, but not by much?


To the downvoters that don't get OP's reference:

Idk if the owner changed or what, but the website used to be more comical.
