Funny you should mention this, I just installed the Headstart version
last night. I really wish those *#$!heads would have mentioned this in
the documentation BEFORE I started the install. Their "15 minutes"
turned into 2.5 HOURS while I shuffled items around the partitions
looking for space on my boot partition (which I keep fairly small). I
even had to take out my brand-new "Star Trek: The Screen Saver"! Boy,
was I pissed off. I got MacInTax in a bundle with Quicken (which I love --
it leaves MacMoney in the dust), so it was a fairly good deal. But now I'm
not so sure I'll get it again next year.

Question: If I'm using TrueType fonts under System 7, do I REALLY need
all those bitmaps in my System file? Did it mess with my normal
TrueType fonts?
