You'll find this booklet helpful if you're familiar with an earlier version of system software and want to know what's new or different in System 7. If you are new to the Macintosh, you should refer instead to the learning materials you received with your computer. n The Help MENU You can see descriptions of objects on the screen by choosing Show Balloons from the Help menu.

Figure 3A Macintosh with several programs open Opening two or more When you start up your Macintosh, you are working with the application programs —Finder™ program. The Finder is the program you use to organize files and folders, work with disks, and open other programs. While working with the Finder, you can open an application program in the usual way—by double-clicking the program's icon (or selecting the icon and choosing Open from the File menu). Before you can open a second application program, you need to switch back to the Finder by choosing Finder from the Application menu (or by clicking a Finder window or icon).

This disk space, called virtual memory, is not available for storing information when it is functioning as virtual memory for the Macintosh. r} Memory Virtual memory is useful when you need a large amount of memory, such as when you're working with a very large document or many programs at a time. If your Macintosh is capable of using virtual memory, controls for virtual memory will appear in the Memory control panel. Virtual memory is available if your Macintosh has a paged-memory management unit (PMMU).
