My first Mac was an original 128K with a single 400K floppy. I once loaded MacWrite and tried to open a document on a second floppy. I counted about 40 disk swaps before I gave up and rebooted. I suspect MacWrite was trying to make a backup copy and didn't have enough free RAM to do a proper job. I had to copy the document onto the MacWrite disk using the Finder before starting MacWrite. The Mac was a MUCH more useful machine after I upgraded it to 512K and an 800K floppy.
