1 - According to the User's Guide (p. 5) you need a hard disk with
at least 3 Mb of free space and 4Mb is recommended. (The
program directory on my hard disk takes up about 3.1 Mb)
2 - If your university has a site license, Quattro is available for
less than $99.00. (One of my colleaques said $66.00). I'm not
sure whether you can buy personal copies for that price, though.
