	I am interested in the same information, with a few additional
	tidbits requested... I have heard that A/UX loaded on an 80 Meg
	drive will leave you with all of 10 Meg to work in.  What kinds
	of larger drives are available?  What are their quirks?  Price?
	Drawbacks?  Can you get something like a 140 Meg internal drive?
	What kinds of/how big/how many hard drives can a Mac II handle?
	My goal is to have the best of both worlds, Mac and Unix, on a
	personal computer.  My price range is 5-8K. (presumably bought
	with a student discount before I leave the academic world in a
	year or so)  I realize that talking with the university dealers
	is the best way to answer these questions, however they seem to
	be even less informed about the new stuff than I am.  Advice?
	Proposed package ideas (with ballpark prices)?  Thanks in advance!
