     Block Space Requirements (Block Cluster Size = 1):

     DEC PHIGS Development Kit:

     Disk space required for      23,000 blocks
     installation:
                                  (11.8M bytes)

     Disk space required for      22,000 blocks
     use (permanent):
                                  (11.3M bytes)

     DEC PHIGS Run-Time Library Kit:

     Disk space required for      17,000 blocks
     installation:
                                  (8.7M bytes)

     Disk space required for      16,500 blocks
     use (permanent):
                                  (8.5M 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 24 Mbytes.

     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 where it may be desirable to improve the performance of an
     application.

     OPTIONAL HARDWARE

     DEC PHIGS for ULTRIX (SPD 25.K7.xx) supports the following input
     devices only with the DECwindows device handler:

     o  Graphics Peripheral Set (32 Function Key Box and 6 Dial Box)

     DEC PHIGS for VMS also supports a variety of hardcopy output
     devices and devices which are strictly compatible. Hardcopy
     devices supported by DEC PHIGS for VMS are:

                                     4
