Serenely scanning the maelstrom that is comp.sys.amiga,
Tom continues to exist, but his image flickers and shakes
as though reflected in a pond disturbed by major volcanic
action beneath the surface.

AmigaTeX is carefully designed to exist within the constraints
of virtually any system, virtual or not.  You can easily get by
with as little as three megabytes of hard disk space.  A more
typical installation may require six megabytes of disk space.
Many people lavishly copy the entire distribution onto their
vast hard disks, using as much as fifteen megabytes.
