Do you think personal systems shouldn't be small? Disk space costs less than $1 per megabyte-year, and is continuing to drop sharply. Memory costs are still not as low as they once were, but demands placed on the system as a result of other hype in the PC world will eventually result in more production capacity coming on-line. There's not much value in optimizing for space. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
