why so much ram? bill gates said no one will ever need more then 640k of ram and he wrote that limit into dos which is the operating system IBM pcs run on. you can put in more ram but bill gates dos only recognizes 640 k of ram.
@xLily thats a lot of ram. bigger then hard drives were at one time!!! the commodore 64 computer ran just fine on 64 k of ram. you have a patch on your IBM dos written by bill gates to allow it to access more then 640k of ram??
@xLily the commodore 64 had lots of games and it ran on 64k of ram. computers used to be lot more efficient. now they need a lot more memory to do the same thing they used to do with less memory . the vic 20 ran on 5 k of ram.
@xLily yea lot better graphics. the games on commodore 64 look like cartoons. the games on the high power computers look like a movie!!! so much power to play games. you play a lot of games?? the vic 20 was sold as a combo game system and computer to justify the price. so was the ataries when they added a key board to them for the more pricy ones.
@xLily wow that is a lot of games. wow ultra high definition!!!!! fancy!! so no tv set running on vacuum tubes for you?? steam powered? burning coal??? / i don't really play games i watch movies and lift weights at the same time.
