This will be more common in the future with cost reductions of computers. The price of this last one with 521Mb was exactly the same as that of my previous one, with only 16Mb, purchased 3-4 years ago. Occasionally for running large matrices programs I borrowed other computers in the lab, which had at most 256 Mb, so that I never met the problem previously. -- Maurice Lombardi Laboratoire de Spectrometrie Physique, Universite Joseph Fourier de Grenoble, BP87 38402 Saint Martin d'Heres Cedex FRANCE Tel: 33 (0)4 76 51 47 51 Fax: 33 (0)4 76 51 45 44 mailto:Maurice DOT Lombardi AT ujf-grenoble DOT fr
