There is no issue with WinMo.
*cough* 32 process limit *cough*

So, first the problem was "not enough ram" - HTC fixed that by putting more then a quarter GB of ram in a handheld. That's right kids, more then twice the ram needed to run a iPhone or iPod Touch, which is running MacOS X (sure, slimmed down, but you're running a darwin kernel) in 128mb ram....

Now, we have these cool devices with no ram limitations... but wait, it still runs like crap sometimes because in 1994-6 Microsoft designed the memory and process management system for a devices with 2-16mb of ram max, and figured "32 processes - that should be plenty" - so your nice massive ram device starts to freak out when you have 30 processes, since there are only 2 slots left... So you can pretty much run 3-4 apps and TF3d.

Yep, it's an issue free OS - for 1996.

This is the device your Operating System is designed and optimized for:

4mb ram. 80mhz cpu. 4 bit 320x240 screen.

It rocks that hardware.
