" - To play an entire orchestra, we recommend 1 GB of RAM."
This is a direct copy-and-paste quote from the Garritan web site. Don't
you just love it when a manufacturer gives specs on their web-site which
just don't work out in real life. Or maybe they know something we don't?

I'm sorry to disillusion you, but 1GB RAM with any speed processor will
NOT give you the ability to do full orchestral mockups. It will give you
about 5 or 6 tracks with Keyswitching (others might get more), but not
the whole enchilada.
GPO and Finale GPO load the samples into RAM and 1 GB can get used up
very quickly. Kontakt 2 (not Kontakt Player 2) can play samples from the
disk, but with a lot of voices or polyphony, that often yields poor
results.
Is anyone on this list doing full orchestral mockups using only GPO? And
if so, what kind of computer and technical specs do you have?
