Between this and RAMDOUBLER my PC was ~~unstable~~ unstoppable! ;-)
And then the Internet happened and we could freely download as much ram as we wanted to!
I remember there was one program that claimed it would update the microcode on your CPU to allow you to basically update your CPU for free to a newer type of processor, for example making your 486 operate like a pentium pro.
Entirely fake, but given the miracles of the time it seemed plausible.
