This reminds me of a long-ago interview with Borland's techies about how they had managed to create Turbo Pascal, which ran well in a 64K (K, not M-) one-floppy PC
Even more impressive was the earlier version of Turbo Pascal which ran on 64K Z80-based CP/M systems!
s/64K/48K/ I believe you could actually theoretically start it up with only 32K of memory, but you couldn't do any real work. -- Aahz (aahz@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ Project Vote Smart: http://www.vote-smart.org/
