- And, whoever told AARON that SAS/C won't compile his programs in 2 Megs
- was incorrect.

- The only time you will need more that 2 Megs with SAS/C is if you want
- to use all of the optimization options, and then it will only be a
- problem on especially complex code. 2 Megs is more than enough to do

- fine in only 1 Meg, but 2 is recommended.
