    If needed, I guess the team could change the amount of RAM that they reserve for OS devices and such at a later date to make it match the 1.8gb free, or usable RAM that OS4.x does, unless they are currently using more that 0.2gb RAM for those devices and other such OS needs. Not that it is likely that any MorphOS program is going to need more than 1.5gb RAM, or if it does, is an additional 0.3gb going to help?

    Maybe by that time, many years into the future, MorphOS will have developed a "work-around" to the memory limitation, or they will create some kind of "Extended Memory", or "Expanded Memory" similar to what was done for MS-DOS to go above the 640kb limit. (that is if MorphOS is still alive years from now and also if there are any developers writing programs for it that need more that the available 1.5gb RAM)
