Very interesting!
Microsoft is so full of it if they think anyone would use this piece of crap!
WTF?!?!
Is 8GB now required to get acceptable bottleneck free performance from Windows?
WTF is Microsoft thinking?
Screw this, I'm sticking with XP!

Most Windows 7 PCs max out their memory, resulting in performance bottlenecks, a researcher said today.
On average, 86% of Windows 7 machines in the XPnet pool are regularly consuming 90%-95% of their available RAM, resulting in slow-downs as the systems were forced to increasingly turn to disk-based virtual memory to handle tasks.
The 86% mark for Windows 7 is more than twice the average number of Windows XP machines that run at the memory "saturation" point
The low-memory condition of most Windows 7 PCs is even more notable considering the amount of RAM in Windows 7 systems: According to XPnet's polling, Windows 7 PCs sport an average of 3.3GB of memory, compared to 1.7GB in the average Windows XP computer. (Machines running Windows Vista contain an average of 2.7GB.)
