SpeedBoost was supported by vista through windows 10, and although windows 11 regognises a speed boost USB, I do not know it it uses it. When I put windows 11 on two i5 8gb machines and plugged in two speed boost drives, it did not swap a lot to them, whereas in windows 7, under memory load it would use them, at least until I found ChacheMem v2.1 it would manage memory much better than windows ever could.

Windows back to window 2.1 386 supported swapdisks, i.e fake ram.

Oh we had those ... But... What about streaming tape? Just ask Uncle Vint.

Look for a tiny mistake, like someone who is a native speaker of another language would NOT make. Eustomer. What?
