Default DG: A Gigabyte of RAM? You must be crazy!

I thought 64mb was plenty in 1997. A company issued K6 Toshiba laptop and a 133mhz home desktop running Win95 with 32mb.

In 1981, Bill Gates said that "640 k ought to be enough for anyone"

Back in those day, even 1Mb was much , things just have to evolve. One day we'll be running Microsoft Doormat 2000000 on a computer with 1Tb of memory
