Thanks, but no thanks.  UNIX is a Dinosaur that has become the trendy operating
system as of late.  It can and will consume every last amount of memory that
you throw at it.  Why anyone would need 32 megs on a home computer is beyond
me.  I don't even think that the HP UNIX machines we have here on campus have
more than 8 and certainly not more than 16 megs.
