          A TK50 Tape Drive is required      If the DEC GKS development, or
          for standalone MicroVAX 2000       runtime system is installed,

                                        bytes)

          These counts refer to the
          disk space required on the
          system disk. The sizes are
          approximate; actual sizes
          may vary depending on the
          user's system environment,
          configuration, and software
          options.

          Memory Requirements for
          DECwindows Support:

          The minimum supported memory
          for this application running
          in a standalone DECwindows
          environment with both the
          client and server executing
          on that same system is 9MB.

          The performance and
          memory usage of DECwindows
          applications are particularly
          sensitive to system
          configuration. Less memory
          may be required on the client
          system (the system where the
          software is installed and
          executed) if the server (the
          component that displays the
          application) resides on another
          system. More memory may be
          required on a system with
          several applications running or
          may be desirable to improve the
          performance of an application.
