Yes, twister, I understand. Just thought it was funny. However, on my machine it does look like my normal mix of stuff uses about 32M more memory; went from about 120M under NT4 to 150M under W2K. That's anecdotal and doesn't prove anything, because I don't know what the extra memory is being used for and don't intend to do the work to find out myself; I'll wait till somebody puts it on slashdot. On my 512M machine it doesn't matter anyway; on a 64M machine it might. M$FT never gets tired of understating memory requirements. Remember when Windows 95 came out? It would run in 4M, but they recommended 8<g>. --QS
