I am currently running Legacy on a very old desktop with only 1GB of
physical memory. I usually have 8-12 windows open running almost that
many separate applications and I've never had a memory problem. Let me
restate that -- my computer has never had a memory problem.

Dede, I realize this isn't exactly what you're asking, but as someone
who finds all PDA-type devices too small (and too expensive when the
higher cell phone access fees are considered), laptops too big, and
thinks a cell-phone should be used for phone calls, I have been quite
happy with my new "netbook." It is inexpensive, lightweight, fits
easily in my bag or large purse, has a reputed 9 hour battery life
(and comes close in actual practice) ...
This is very interesting to read. I've just been to two different
computer stores looking at netbooks vs. laptops, and in both I was
told that the netbooks have too little RAM memory to support Legacy.
The netbooks I was viewing had 2 GB of memory, but I'm told the basic
architecture and software sets take up about 1 GB of that memory just
to have the machine function. So that adding a large program like
Legacy will take me up to the maximum capacity and run me right on the
edge. Is this not true?
