- 'Course, these are the same folks that said 5MB and a 68000 was adequate to run
- the Toaster. Adequate is a really relative term, no? I have customers who
- require 80MB ram to use Lightwave, your mileage may vary. On the Amiga, I
- personally consider 16MB the typical required ram to use LW properly, and I'm
- just an shade-tree animator. Add 4-8MB of Windows overhead, and I'd say 32MB
- makes more real-world sense for a Windows/LW box.
