Would anyone with 5.1 (All 6 disks of it) give me any suggestions about storage. Is 1meg and two drives enough to do some basic compiling (under 20-30K of program text)....or should I get more memory... or should I get a hard drive (Obviously, the HD is the most expensive, but I just wanted to know how the disks were distributed). I owned Lattice C++ V3 and It only had 2 disks for the most part and worked fine with most compiling jobs. Any suggestions? I don't want to invest in a HD if 1 meg is not enough to compile. Thanks in advance! ============================================================================= Jason Goris EMail: goris@eecae.uucp Phone: 517-337-3957 // vs. \X/ | B /\/\ =============================================================================
