Comment Re: It's also unusable with 8GB of RAM (Score 1) 24

I use a Windows 11 laptop with 16GB and it isn't even enough to just run word, Excel, the browser, and Adobe reader at once without choking constantly. It did become basically usable once I turned off animations, though.

32GB is a reasonable minimum for Windows today. You could get away with 8 using Linux, Evince, and LibreOffice to do the same things though. Literally, I know because I do.

You can. I do. My laptop is a Zen+ with 2C4T and I upgraded from 4/128 to 8/512 and it runs a full Linux desktop with KDE Plasma just fine. It's not even slow, it boots quickly and everything works. I wouldn't try to do any serious content creation in it but for all common tasks it is completely adequate.

My phone with 8GB is actually a bigger problem.
