I've been trying to research this but haven't found a definitive answer. Does anyone know how much RAM would be required to run AppleWorks GS? I have a memory expansion card that has the stock 256k, so that would give the machine a total of 512k. From what I have been able to find, that probably wouldn't be enough. If I max out the card at 1 MB, giving the machine 1.25 MB of RAM, would that be enough?
Also, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I would need a hard drive to use it, plus run GS/OS? In the later case, am I going to need a newer RAM expansion card that would give me 4MB or 8MB? Or is 1.25 MB of RAM? Primarily, I want to run AppleWorks GS and either GS/OS 5 or 6, depending on whether AWGS will run on 6.
Thanks!

GS/OS 6 needs 1MB of RAM (2 recommended) plus you need RAM for the app.
