From p. 5 of the documenation: "What You Will Need 1. An ATARI home computer 2. An ATARI disk drive (up to 2). 3. The program diskette, enclosed in the inside front cover pocket of the manual. 4. At least 48K of memory. 5. A TV set or other video monitor. A black and white set will work. 6. Blank diskettes for storing data. Optional: ATARI printers for obtaining hard copy versions of reports. You can also use the Axlon Rampower 128K or Mosaic 64K Select to increase your computer's capacity."

From p. 9 of the documenation: "NOTE: The memory indicator will be nnn/NNN where nnn = amount of memory used in K bytes and NNN = total amount of memory available in K bytes (1 K byte is equal to 1024 characters). When you notice that the memory indicator shows that the worksheet is becoming full, you should save the worksheet to disk and then reload it. This may free up additional memory space. The amount of memory will vary according to the configuration of your computer."
