a couple of 3.9 gig drives is more than enough in an A2000! - even with a video toaster!  :-)

base VT install is nothing, but if you have a lot of framestores, either stock or self-created, they take up a lot of space.  There are also options for alpha channels, or in essence 3-layer files - so it is some space, but not erm on the order of > 10G of space...

off topic, but oddly, I was able to install VT2.0 and get it to run within 5 megs on an A2000/030 (1 meg chip and 4 megs fast) and it works reasonably well!  The disk on it is only about 240mb. Amazing if you contrast this to some of today's hardware and software (admittedly it does a lot more now).
