    One thing I absolutely do not miss about System 7 was having to manually tweak how much RAM was allocated to each application.

      Technically, that was all the way up to 9, if you can believe it. “Classic” never had dynamic memory allocation. It was also cooperative multitasking, which is why if an app locked up, the entire system would often require a reboot.

      The good ole days.
