I actually would be very suprised if you could strip things
down enough to have a 'usable' system with the core 3.3 Developer
installed in under 100MB. Afterall, that would have to include the
swapfile as well as user space for whatever project you were working
on. I don't have a lot of extra stuff installed on mine, mainly just
CAPer, and the full NS 3.3 User and Developer isntalled takes nearly
300MB.
