Unfortunately I don't have a system in front of me that I can 
check, but I remember it using about 100-150K.  AppleShare has 
few things going for it as far as memory--you can control the 
amount of memory the AppleTalk driver reserves for buffering, the 
AppleShare PC accessory program doesn't have to be memory 
resident if you don't want it to be, and when it is memory 
resident, it will take advantage of expanded memory.
