You meant 512MB right? Anyways If I put a gig of RAM, I can run at least 10 virtual servers on it. You are saying it takes as much for an IDE and it is justifiable? To be fair, I think if we play with the JVM settings and limit it to 256MB only, it might even perform well enough on a 512MB RAM. > (b) What could be the reasons anybody would want to learn vi or emacs?

Just for kicks and old habits die hard. Also what's the alternative? Eclipse? Not even sun would advise that.. ;) Shridhar -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([email protected]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
