I got it install, and have just regular things running. AV, thunderbird, helpdesk work programs, Outlook, IE, Chrome, 2 putty sessions, and explorer open and thats using 2.61gb of ram. Physical memory is 66% AND I have 4gb in here. Doesn't that seem a little high to anyone? It's not like I have anything intensize open my cpu is 5-7-10%

that doesn't seem too high if Aero is on with the AV and Chrome. Chrome usually eats up quite a bit of ram and Aero + Vista will typically eat up 512 to a gig depending on the video card installed.

Yeah those integrated graphics suck ass for running Aero. We sell laptops at Best Buy with 2 gigs of ram, nice processors, but integrated video and it would run at 80% ram usage with nothing open.

Yeah, it typically frees up a ton if you can kill all the pretty stuff that Aero uses.
