Please tell me in what way my advice was incorrect. According to
"Windows 7 in Depth" Windows 7 will run on 1GB of ram; according to
the Ubuntu website, the latest version will run on 1GB or ram.
There is no question at all that the system will run better and
faster on more ram, and I don't know of anyone in this day and age who
would "recommend" less than 4GB. 8GB gives you room for large file
manipulations or games, and for expansion in the future.
