Positive both are 64bit.
My RAM usage at the moment is 1.28GB.... that's Windows 7 plus any background stuff that runs (ie stuff that wasn't there when I very first installed W7... I used an upgrade install onto Vista home premium but I hadn't connected it to the internet or installed anything onto Vista before I upgraded) plus firefox with 3 tabs open, plus a word document and an Excel document (and I assume the task manager takes up some RAM too)
I bought this laptop about 2 months ago, and basically didn't use it until I upgraded to Windows 7.
Vista Home Premium the first time I turned it on used up 1.4GB (I can never remember, is it capital B for byte or lower case)
Windows 7 when I first installed it used up 800MB
It's possible some of the discrepancy is DELL functions such as their Dock, which will have been running when I checked Vista, but I think I had uninstalled it when I checked Windows 7... but would the Dell Dock really take up that much space?
