I've drawn the conclusion that the only real
memory-hog is the Netscape browser.
A couple of folks have advised me to install a 32MB simm for that purpose alone.
It would certainly be a shame to make the system buckle when browsing just
because it lacks RAM.
Does anyone know otherwise? It would be a waste to invest in expanding the RAM
if it's unwarranted, though I've never heard complaints about too much RAM.

Netscape is a memory hog, but will run in as little as 8MB. V4.08 uses
about 12-14MB in my system, but more RAM never hurts...except the wallet!
Go look at iCab:

I think the preview version is still free for the moment.
