I am strongly inclined to buy a NeXTstation for use at home. Could someone tell me how much free space I would have on the HD given the following software (assuming a 200MB drive): 1. OS version 2.0 2. Workspace Manager 3. Edit 4. Mathematica 5. Installer (don't know what this is) 6. Preferences (ditto) 7. VT100 Terminal Emulator 8. BuildDisk, InstallTablet, UserManager 9. Interface Builder (maybe ...) 10. C compiler 11. C++ compiler 12. Malloc Debugger 13. GNU Emacs and GNU debugger 14. On-line technical documentation As you see, I am basically interested in doing a bit of programming on a UNIX box at home. Any other comments other than the info requested above is most welcome. PLEASE respond to my email: apas611@hermes.chpc.utexas.edu or aviator@csdfx8a.arlut.utexas.edu Thanks! --db David Boles
