That will bring up the Get Info box about the application, where you can set the minimum and optimal RAM sizes for the application. You also asked about how to do this in OS X. One of the great joys of OS X is that you no longer have to commit an application to a particular memory space -- the OS manages RAM for you on the fly. It is one of the biggest improvements of OS X for people like us who run apps that gobble up memory, like Photoshop. Sanders McNew [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
