Well, my old Mac (read that, first 90 days ...) has an HD 20, which was
purchased for full price when they first came out.  FullWrite runs better on
that machine because it has 2 Meg RAM than it does on my Mac Plus with a
SCSI drive (the Plus has only 1 Meg).  

So, yes, you really do need a hard drive, but the memory seems to be far
more critical.  If I increase FullWrite's memory portion to about 1300K,
I can run MultiFinder and FullWrite, which still gives me access to the
desktop to create folders, etc.

By the way, I've been using the program fairly extensively, with lots of
graphics, over the past 10 days, and haven't crashed it yet.  It's 
speedy enough and seems very solid, especially for a gamma.
