SoftRAM and SoftRAM95 were system software products which claimed to double the available random-access memory in Microsoft Windows without the need for a hardware upgrade. However, it later emerged that the program did not even attempt to increase available memory. In July 1996, the developer of SoftRAM, Syncronys settled charges brought by the Federal Trade Commission of "false and misleading" claims in relation to the capability of the software. The product was rated the third "Worst Tech Product of All Time" by PC World in 2006. Around 100,000 to 600,000 copies of the software were sold overall.

| - SoftRAM und SoftRAM95 sind Computerprogramme, von denen die Hersteller behaupteten, dass sie den vorhandenen Arbeitsspeicher unter Windows ohne zusätzliche Hardware effektiv verdoppeln können. Es stellte sich aber heraus, dass das Programm nicht in der Lage ist, überhaupt die Speicherverwaltung zu beeinflussen. Die Entwickler klärten im Juli 1996 mit der FTC die Anklage, die in Verbindung mit den Leistungszusagen des Programms erhoben worden ist. Die Software erhielt 2006 von -Magazin den Titel Drittschlechtestes technisches Produkt aller Zeiten. (de)

- SoftRAM and SoftRAM95 were system software products which claimed to double the available random-access memory in Microsoft Windows without the need for a hardware upgrade. However, it later emerged that the program did not even attempt to increase available memory. In July 1996, the developer of SoftRAM, Syncronys settled charges brought by the Federal Trade Commission of "false and misleading" claims in relation to the capability of the software. The product was rated the third "Worst Tech Product of All Time" by PC World in 2006. Around 100,000 to 600,000 copies of the software were sold overall. As SoftRAM and SoftRAM95 were faulty, the company had to file for bankruptcy because they could not afford $10 rebates for affected consumers. The main owners of the company were Rainer Poertner (20.9%), Wendell Brown (13.5%) and a British Virgin Islands company called Mobius Capital Corp. which owned 55.3%. The proxy statement document also names a certain Daniel G. Taylor as the only person with indirect beneficial interest in Mobius Capital Corp, who received his law degree from Osgoode Hall in 1982.
