Well, suggested is 175 so I chose that for the minimum. I figured pad that a
little (I interpret "suggested" as minimum for running stable) and came up
with 256 for the Preferred. No magic here, just a best guess for what I would
consider the bare necessities.

I like that thinking Jeff, it doesn't hurt if you have the memory for it
(that's why I suggested what I would consider the least amount - many people
would consider 1 or 2 meg alot for the PrintMonitor). I actually have my home
computer set to 2MB because of the complex printing I often do.
