Obviously I won't be pulling any special tricks. Dynamic memory will be the thing addrest last AFTER everything else is working. I won't be using it extensively; I'm just saying it will open up some interesting avenues.

Come to think of it, I'm not even sure I'll use it. Just the prospect of finally being able to use it is rather interesting.
