It's two (2) 800K disks.  That's probably pushing it for the size of things
going across the net.  The demo on a MacPlus was very slow -- about MacWrite
speed.  We couldn't get it to even launch on a 1 meg Mac II.  Until I see a
good working version with a little more speed, I'll stick with Microsoft
Word, even though the WYSIWYG columns were really nice...
