Partial jest. Memory footprint is an issue with many new pieces
of software and it doesn't take much to bring Win98 to its
knees. So much of the "non-commercial" stuff (AVG again!) runs
better with 98 than the commercial stuff (Symantec, et al) does.
So many new programs have so much bloat that even an XP machine
with less than 512MB or even 1GB of RAM will crawl. I encourage
anyone buying a new machine to seriously consider 1GB of RAM
before thinking of a bigger hard drive or faster CPU.
