     Processor Restrictions:

     A TK50 Tape Drive is required for standalone MicroVAX 2000 and
     VAXstation 2000 systems.

     Disk Space Requirements (Block Cluster Size = 1):

     Disk space required          12,500 blocks
     during installation:
                                  (6.4 Mbytes)

     Disk space required for      9,200 blocks
     use (permanent):
                                  (4.7 Mbytes)

     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 8 MB.

     OPTIONAL HARDWARE

     Only D_, F_, and G_Floating point data types can be used in
     programs written in VAX C. VAX C does not support the H_Floating
     point data type. Floating point-intensive applications should
     be run on configurations with the appropriate hardware support
     for the floating point data types being used. Consult the base
     operating system Software Product Description (SPD) for the
     appropriate floating point accelerator or other floating point
     hardware appropriate for your configuration.

     CLUSTER ENVIRONMENT

     This layered product is fully supported when installed on any
     valid and licensed VAXcluster* configuration without restric-
     tions. The HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS sections of this product's
     Software Product Description and System Support Addendum detail
     any special hardware required by this product.

     *  V5.x VAXcluster configurations are fully described in the
        VAXcluster Software Product Description (29.78.xx) and in-
        clude CI, Ethernet, and Mixed Interconnect configurations.

     SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

     For Systems Using Terminals (No DECwindows Interface):

     VMS Operating System V5.2-V5.4

     For Workstations Running VWS:

     VMS Operating System V5.2-V5.4
     VMS Workstation Software V4.1-V4.3

     For Workstations Running DECwindows:

     VMS Operating System V5.2-V5.4 (and necessary components of VMS
     DECwindows)

     VAX C supports a DECwindows compiler interface for compile qual-
     ifier selection on workstations. This interface is accessible
     from FileView.

     This product may run in either of the following ways:

     o  Stand-alone execution-running the X11[TM] display server and
        the client application on the same machine.

     o  Remote execution-running the X11 display server and the
        client application on different machines.

     VMS DECwindows is part of the VMS Operating System but must
     be installed separately. Installation of VMS DECwindows gives
     you the option to install any or all of the following three
     components:

     o  VMS DECwindows Compute Server (Base kit; provides runtime
        support)

     o  VMS DECwindows Device Support

     o  VMS DECwindows Programming Support

     For stand-alone execution, the following DECwindows components
     must be installed on the machine:

     o  VMS DECwindows Compute Server (runtime support)
