No!  This is grossly unreasonable to assume.  I, for one, have a 128K Mac
with one disk drive, and probably will for a long time to come, unless the
recent changes at Apple lead to an improvement in their pricing strategy.
It's already difficult enough to print some of the MacWrite documents that
are sent out, since so little space is left on the disk.

Also, when files are posted in larger pieces, some systems have problems
with them...
