QNX:
You download 27 MB (selfextracting exe)
it uncompresses (cca. 55 MB), and starts a programm which wants to make a
file, which will be mounted from QNX as default 'HDD'.
The preset value is 600 MB. (you can set IMHOO between 64 and 2048 MB)
This will be used as QNX Harddrive.
BEOS:
decompresses to a 512 MB file.
(this file contains the BEOS system and much free space.)
this file is mounted as the system 'harddisk'.

system+utilities+free space to work with
.... yes
(ps ... QNX is the thing with a 1.44 MB demo disk ....
it is still quite small ... 55 MB OS+many programs.
The huge 600 MB file is empty, and is used as your QNX harddisk.
QNX made a much better impression on me ....
You can also install it in a partition, and the package manager allows it
to load packages (QNX APMs :) from the net.
