I also ordered the complete OS distribution on floppies. I did this so that I have a clean backup copy as well as all of the software available to use and put on (a soon to be acquired) external SCSI drive. Since the $$$ for the external SCSI are not available at this time, what software can I kill on the basic distribution to get room for IB/ compilers/debuggers/editors/etc that are on the extended distribution that I need for developing. What apps/utilities are you using to develop now, what do I need, what will be nice, what is essential, etc??? What are the sizes of all the apps/files in the OS distributions? I will post a summary if enough interest is shown. Thanks Roder - trying to cram 275 meg in a 105 meg drive :-)
