You can run Idris on a 520, 1040, or mega.  I understand that Idris with STX
(X-windows for the ST) will run on a 1040, but the mega is reccomended
because of the memory requirements of X.

You will need a hard disk to run Idris, and the package does come with
the necessary partitioning utilities so you can have TOS and Idris filesystems
on the same disk.

I'm running Idris on my 1040, but I don't have STX yet (I'm waiting for
my update...)

Idris for the ST is available from Computer Tools International.  I don't
have their current address, but I'm sure Skip from CTI can supply that,
as he reads this group.
