Definitely. While I've pulled Word Tools off my hard disk because of
problems it seems to have with the new System release, I use Macwrite
without any problems. One megabyte is minimal for a Multifinder setup,
you're lucky to fit more than one application in with it.

You don't want to use background printing without a hard disk. Period.
Laserwriter files are large. Too large for floppy systems. I make sure I
have at least a megabyte free on my hard disk, or turn off background
printing.

you can have it. With my blessing. I don't knw how I lived without
Multifinder.
