- jankotek 10y agoWiki: General availability October 25, 2001; 15 years ago. General minimum recommended for XP was/is 512MB.
- dfox 10y agoMicrosoft specified minimum is 64MB, recommended 128MB. XP RTM with 128MB RAM was perfectly usable, obviously it was not a good idea to run lots of crap in background.

- Sunset 10y agoYou're the hopeful kind I see. XP was utter shit on "medium" hardware of its time. It ate ram like no tomorrow compared to 98.
