[net.micro.mac] How much memory does MacPaint 1.42 need?

I recently acquired Finder 4.1, te version 1.1 System File,
Font/Da Mover version 1.2. and MacPaint version 1.42. I know
these are not the official Apple releases but I went ahead
and installed the new Finder and System File as well as the
MacPaint application on an old MacPaint application disk.
I then used the Font/Da Mover to remove all the DA's except
Choose Printer and Control Panel and to remove all fonts
except New York, Geneva, Cairo and Venice. This left about
120k free on the disk. The problem is that when I attempt to
open MacPaint I get a dialog box telling me that there is
not enough memory to for MacPaint ?!?!

Does this mean that the new releases are really tuned to the
512k Macs and not to us skinny Mac users?
