Re: Task killers are bad...

*shrug* needless to say, everyones mileage may vary. I do consider myself a "power user". I mean I am on this thing constantly, have every screen filled with widgets, etc. My ram gets low fast, but as long as I close out third party stuff with ATK, my ram stays above 100 MB and the phone runs great. Stopped using ATK for a couple days, ram got low and phone ran like crap.

While many people have made good cases for why a task killer may not be truly necessary, no one has really made a case for how they actually cause any problems or arent at all helpful, when used correctly, I.e.: not closing core, built in apps.
