With a busy PC, big documents, big graphics, video etc you can easily use more than 2GB of memory.<br>
<br>
The pro editions of Windows 7 offer an "XP Mode" for running old applications (Basically it runs them inside a virtual machine of Windows XP - but transparently, once you've set it up, you just click the program's icon to launch it like any other, and it appears to be running in Windows 7, and can access your Win7 filesystem seamlessly). I've never yet encountered an application that couldn't work in XP mode like this, even 16 bit (!) ones designed to run on Windows 3.1.<br>
