I have a 512KE Mac with a 10MB Hyperdrive and am interested in
trying out Apple's MPW system. According to the APDA catalog
I just received, the basic MPW system and MPW Pascal run with
512K but 1M is "highly recommended". MPW C and MacApp are said
to require 1M.
Has anyone out there tried MPW on a 512K machine? How much can
one get done with MPW or MPW Pascal with only 512K? Can anything
useful be done at all with MPW C or MacApp with 512K?
My main interests here are:
1) MPW C for real programming - Yeah, no hope, right?
2) MPW assembler for real programming - Maybe?
3) MPW and MacApp for real, or just to evaluate.
Unless you have something startling unique to say, please mail
to me. I will summarize to the net.

PS: I haven't a clue how these net addresses work, so I'll just
hope 'r' is being kind this week...
