I'm not sure how big the download was. Somewhere in the vicinity of 30Mb
I think although I'm prepared to be proven wrong. I'm not able to talk
to that box at the moment to see if I still have the file(s). Nor can I
say how big the installed version is. I ran the setup program but never
started Sybase running. Partly due to a lack of time to learn how to use
it and also because of a lack of confidence in the abilities of a P166
with 48Mb RAM running MySQL at the same time in a prod environment.

Unfortunately, because linux is an 'unsupported' platform none of the
old guys in the department can see their way to let me have a box with
more grunt for either prod or test. Still, Apache dishes up the pages
quicker (subjective measure) than the higher specced NT4/IIS 'official'
dept intranet server!!
