Lotus Agenda + Software Carousel on a 2 MB palmtop?
I was wondering if anybody here has had any experience with running Agenda 2.0 using Software Carousel on a 2 MB palmtop. Right now, I can run Agenda on my 200LX by using MaxDOS to swap everything (i.e. SysMgr) out to C:, thereby running with as much conventional RAM as possible. I've also got EMM200 providing it with 256 KB EMS from C:. Obviously, I can't switch back to any SysMgr apps while Agenda is running in this fashion.

Is it possible to run Agenda from within Software Carousel? In other words, is there enough conventional memory free inside an SC session to run it successfully? I don't think it's possible to get it running from within SysMgr (or if it is, you would have to disable so much stuff and have nothing else running that it wouldn't be worth forcing it in). But if it can run inside a Software Carousel session, I would think I can switch back and forth between Agenda and SysMgr, assuming I give it about 640 KB of C: to use as swap.

Thaddeus Computing appears to still sell Software Carousel for $50 on a 4 MB card, but I don't want to drop the money on it and find out that it can't be used to run Agenda. Anyone tried it?
