WDYT?
Most users have >=128MB ram, but I don't see us adding features to the
installer to take advantage of the extra ram.
Remember your minimum requirements. Machines which only just make those
requirements are likely to have an older CD-ROM drive, thus we are
likely to find users who have problems if we use 700MB.
What is the difference between having 700MB CDs, and having 3 650MB CDs
and a fourth 150MB CD? It's the same space on the mirror, and it costs
the user only an extra $0.50 (well, that's what CD-Rs cost here). Buying
a new CD-ROM drive for all the < PII machines would cost significantly
more ...
The oldest CDROM drive I got, a cheap 4X from Mitsumi can read 700MB CD.
I bought it while I still had a 486 DX4 100...
