If not then good luck writing code to page out to that 512k of RAM. I do wonder what the 1980 computer scene would have been like if 512k was there because that was the smallest amount available, instead of the normal 16k. It was only when the PC came along that this amount of memory was available. PC programs took a while to be as concisely optimised as home computer code had to be. So maybe the scarcity of RAM was a good thing.
