Hey don't get me wrong, we get extremely warm during summer, but electronic components that overheat works better then frozen mecanical head motor

I had a friend from pasadena coming a few summers ago, and she could not witstand our heat+humidity. Its not exactly warmer, but humidex kills us

This said, I realised in another thread that 9x or ME can handle maximum 512 Mb of RAM. But another member is using ME with no swap file and it works great. I think that I'll use 98se with no swap file.

I don't mind much for stability, as 98 needs reboot only once in a day or so, and even long runs are like 6 hours in the car before shutdown. I will not use hibernation mode. Always hated that.

So I think I'll just flash the system with no swap and be fine with it.

thanks for the info!
