    One of the people at the NeXT help line informed me that the "base" 
    software release takes approximately 85 Mbytes, and the extended release
    adds approximately 40 Mbytes.  Now this is in conflict with what other
    people on the net have been saying.  I had heard from the net that the 
    complete release is 240 Mbytes ( which BTW I don't believe because the 
    guy I talked to at NeXT seemed quite sure of the numbers ).  I don't know
    if Lotus Improv was included as part of the 40Mb of the extended release
    or not.

    Hope this is helpful.
