Gerald,
My own impressions are:
SoftRAM - appears to work but not as well as they claim
SoftRAM95 - under investigation for fraud etc. See PC Mag.
MagnaRAM - compresses both the swap file and memory. Works
well but there is a speed compromise.
MagnaRAM2 - haven't had the chance to try this one.
Hurricane - does not run properly on the DTR-1.
Hurricane II - haven't had the chance to try this one.
Ram Doubler - does not run properly on the DTR-1. (ver 1.0)
Right now I use none of the above.
Best of luck.
