Windows longhorn is a memory hog, it uses 120mb of memory compared to the 15-20mb Windows XP uses sad.gif

....its in beta, you cant *BLEEP* about a program that hasnt been released yet because you dont know what optimizations are to come. Howver my last look at longhorn was well... i didnt like the look but we will see what is to come it has a ways to go yet and wont be released for a good while. Will it be another windows xp(flagship os)? or another windows me (flop).

I hope you are in your senses, I install windows and check my ram indicator! daMN.. I was wondering where did my 160 mb go. So windows XP does take a *BLEEP* load of resources. And it is a general rule that as operating system progress, they do take increased amount of resources. But they also give that much of stability, reliability, performance etc. in return. Don't believe me, Start off with DOS to Windows XP and see for yourself.

I agree with that. On my machine, WinXP takes nearly 100 MB of memory at this moment...
Win98 was taking hardly 15-20 MB. Probably that was what zzzzz was referring to?
