Subject: Clipboard size?

Hi all --

    I have a matrix of doubles (roughly 30x80) which I'd like to copy to 
the clipboard.  However, as the following shows:

 > dm = matrix(runif(30 * 80), nrow = 80)
 > write.table(dm, "clipboard", sep = "\t")
Warning message:
clipboard buffer is full and output lost

    Is there any way to increase the buffer?  Obviously, other programs 
don't have the same limitations (i.e., I can copy the same volume of 
data from Excel or my text editor and paste it into R without a problem)
