A CHAP who managed to sneak a peek at the Vole's internal beta version 2 of Windows 53xx informed us that, even while idling, Vista eats as much as 800Mb of system memory.
Yeah, we were shocked too, but you have to believe the screenshot below.

Memory manufacturers couldn't be happier about that, as it will make people to go out and buy more memory. Our source reported that Vista runs ok with 1024Mb of system memory but no-doubt 2048Mb would be much better.

Vista won't install on FAT32 partitions, it only likes NTFS partitions. We also know that the system performs quite well on an Athlon 4000+ and a Geforce 7800 GTX 512 works just fine in the mix. Aero glass looks good, we liked it when we first clapped eyes on Beta 1 version.

Vista occupies roughly three times more space than Windows XP. In fact, it'll require up to a whopping seven gigabytes of drive space.

wah lao...

amd64 4000+ and a78gtx 512mb? man.. i need to get a new pc for that one

whopping 7gb? even at 10 gig, it wouldn't be a prob since most of use who do bt surely have at least 500gbs... wink.gif

however, this makes me think:
hark... my win xp is running fine as it is now. why the heck do i need a high end gaming rig just to run vista? doesn't make sense, isn't it?

considering vista is coming out in DVD and not CD... so i assume it will take loads of hdd space... abt eating 800megs of ram.. i'm not sure of that.. perhaps vista alot a portion of the ram as some sort of disc cache??
