Given

my technology challenges of the last week and the

ever-increasing RAM requirements of downloaded programs,

RAMPage has been my friend for 8 years. RAMpage is a fr*ee Windows utility

that displays the amount of available memory in the System Tray.

It can also free memory by double clicking the tray icon, by

setting a threshold that activates the program automatically, or

by having it run automatically when a program exits.

I use the program indicators to

close some programs when RAMPage gets in the red zone, an

indicator that I'm perilously low in my amount of available RAM

and my computer might freeze if I don't shut some things down.

You would think with 1 GB of RAM that wouldn't happen, but it's

occurring more frequently here recently.
