There is no way that a "state-of-the-art" word processor needs more than a
megabyte of memory on the Mac.  Properly segmented, FWP should be able to
run on a one meg Mac Plus.  Those with larger memories would experience
better performance due to less purging of segments, but everyone with at
least a meg should be able to use the program.
