ram and disk space usage

After loading all your standard typical applications(1), how much disk
space(2) are we talking about, and what's the memory usage at after login
without disabling any advance functionality?

(1) word, excel, outlook, AVS, media player, etc., excluding 2nd party games
or large apps like CAD programs
(2) minus virtual files size

disk space. not sure about the ram, but some people have reported 600MB used
without any programs loaded.

Re: ram and disk space usage

And where are you going to find a "62 bit" system?
