In spite of this, we've gotten memory usage down below 32MB of RAM. Considering how much has been added to NT compared to the original NT and even the DOS systems, there is no possible way to have not increased the resources required to provide that functionality. Any new functionality is going to increase the code size, which then increases memory usage. You are trying to compare operating systems that provided significantly less functionality than the current generation of NT operating systems and claiming that the resources needed for both should not change. Considering the current generation of desktops, how you can make that assertion with a straight face is beyond me, except for one possibility which I'll cover later. Your assertion only works if one regards 100 MHz and 32MB of RAM as a significant amount of resources.

How is ReactOS going to do as far as ram use, processor demands, and hardĭrive space needs? Well, judging from the alphas so far, ReactOS is light on Power and memory it takes to run Windows XP comfortably? Specs going to be?

It seems that a minimum of a 1 ghz PIIIĪnd at least 256 megs of ram is needed to run Windows XP comfortably, though These days, Windows XP will run on a 233 mhz Pentium or a 500 mhz K6-2, but
