Max RAM

We all know how resource hungry VISTA is and also the minimum RAM required for the various versions of VISTA to run .

According to this article there is a limit for maximum amount RAM supported by VISTA.The 32-bit editions of Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise and Ultimate, all support a maximum of 4 GB of RAM.

The real variations come when we start looking at the 64-bit versions. On a system running x64 Vista Home Basic, you can add as much as 8 GB of RAM. x64 Vista Home Premium supports as far as 16 GB of RAM.
But it will take no less than 128 GB of RAM in order to satiate x64 Vista Business, Enterprise and Ultimate. 128 GB of RAM is the maximum supported physical limit in the case of these three operating systems.

The Positive Effect Of The Oil Price Rise

While everybody is busy cursing the rise in oil prices, I found this article titled

"The high cost of oil is bad for the economy, but is it good for the climate?"

in The Guardian which actually tries to look at the positive side of the oil price rise( more than 130$ a barrel all time high).

Well ,the high rise in petrol price might actually help in fighting the problems like global warming .

This lines consummates what the author wanted to say.

"Several theories were emerging yesterday over the environmental effects of oil at $130 a barrel or more. In the green corner were the optimists, who believe that the shock will force people to cut their energy use, invest in renewable and energy conservation, downsize their cars, take fewer foreign holidays and reduce greenhouse gas emissions."

In India a price hike of rupees 10 is suggested . The price hike at least might force many lazy people like me walk to neighbourhood grocery store instead of using the bike and prefer public transportation over the luxury of a private car for long distances.
