        Wow.  this is something I've not tried.  A ram drive
        or a simple swap system?  The problem is it would have
        to be very sophisticated good for a ram drive to work
        well with windows.  Since it handles tons of things behind
        the scenes.  It might interfere and you have to plan for
        a lot of things.  Don't even know if Delphi does this
        sort of thing.  What is the puprose of the ram drive?
        I've not even setup a ram drive in gosh 20 years....
        man...then I used those ancient utils around the boards...
