I'm running on a "partitioned" system right now: an altos-586 running
XENIX with, yes, a 10-meg disk. Indeed, there is not a heck of a lot of
room on here (I have the development package); only a few man pages (mostly
for stuff I got on the net, and a few pieces of local stuff); it is
somewhat of a nuisance, but I can certainly understand a company partitioning
the system. Even without the development package, ten megs is not much.

and I've stripped the thing myself even more (got rid of spell and its
froofraw; chucked out useless phototypesetting utilities; that sort of
thing) so I can keep at least a few days news online at a time.
