That is correct.  The latest 23.x and up if you check "Start at Boot"
it will install the prime95.exe program as a service (on
NT/2000/XP/2003) and it will start when the system boots (like the
description says).  It might even install as a "fake" service on
Win95/98 but I'm not sure about that.

The disadvantage it still has is that you need the Prime95 GUI
application to change the configuration unless you are familiar with
the .ini settings.

I'm not sure about RAM usage, it might be that NTPRIME uses a little
less memory since it doesn't have any of the GUI components in the
code but that is just a wild guess.
