Re: Ram Management
dotFred Task Manager is the key here. Oxios is great, but if you closed a program and it never really "closed" (even though its not running according to windows task manager), check with dotFred Task Manager. I often find opera running in the background 5 mins after closing/exiting. Also, If you use GPSGate, it seems to have a nasty memory leak too (But after closing, it's all freed up again.)

But alas, you will still have to eventually reboot, just like regular windows. To much shoddy programming will eventually gobble all he RAM, though with the aforementioned measures, reboots should be a few DAYS apart. I usually have to end up rebooting because my GPS radio stopped responding ot task bar disappeared.
