for the AppleWorks program. Expanded features include a larger desktop, an
increase of the number of lines for the word processor, an increase in the
number of data base records and more. Some enhancements include the ability
to load the entire program into RAM, saving large files over several data disks
if necessary, and displaying the time on screen. The “MultiRam Software
