Around 100Gb just for the Oracle Apps (with the Vision demo database) + 25Gb
Stage11i area you may want to keep + OS + etc.
As for being free, well you can download it for free but patches are only
available from Metalink and you need a valid support identifier in order to
subscribe to it.

I've been interested in playing with Oracle and I know you can get a free
developer version.... But what's the bare minimum requirements?
Does it need 200GB?
