Don't overlook the simplicity and compatibility across different memory car=
ds by using a ProDOS RAMDisk.  There are ways to organize your files on suc=
h a disk to get reasonable performance.  Perhaps not as fast as native acce=
ss, but acceptable for many uses (think swap disk).  In any rate, it might =
be easier to mock up different scenarios using file access calls before com=
mitting to a final native design.
