  In other words Kent, you can't tell us anything about system 7 and A/UX which
probably means that it's going to be a major pain to upgrade to 7 if you are
running AUX judging by Apple previous record.   Anyway, I've seen the system
7 beta release (having worked at a company that had good reason to have it) 
and it's really very sharp, I must say, but while installing it I didn't notice
anything mentioning AUX, but then again I wasn't really paying much attention
to the system.
 
   Somebody mentioned the MACH10 OS for the Mac, and the number is        
   1-800-6-MACH-10, and the add does depict a Mac Classic running the software.
   I've asked for an informational package, but it's not here yet, if
   anyone knows anything about this I'd appreciate an answer.  
 
And now my question:  In a previous article it's mentioned that inserting a 
line like "TBMEMORY=10M" in your .login will allow the Mac shell to run with 
10M of virtual memory, where do you put this line?  I have it in my personal
.login, and in the one at the root level but neither seems to do the trick,
Also I did read the manpage for Login, and couldn't see any references to
this variable there at all?   Any help please?
