Several online mags have widely reported for years that Win95/98 doesn't 

really take advantage or larger RAM amounts, though some applications 

with 98SE patches can. Our own useage informally confirms this.


Also, unlike WinNT, Win2K is actually shown to run *slower* the more RAM 

you have above 128; a little detail that MS is working hard to cover up. 

Hopefully patches will repair this soon; we have a lot of money in RAM 

that's going to waste under Win2K.
