> limited-resource systems (512 megs of RAM) ..

I am offended on behalf of all for whom that is more RAM than their first computer had :)

Having a computer with 256MB of RAM was once my dream …

Seemed like a lot when I only had 2MB…

What was that Gates quote again? (No. Not the one from his latest, AI-oriented diatribe ...)

64KiB is all anyone needs, wasn’t it?

		That's it :) PS I do seem to remember it was either disavowed or inexact. Notwithstanding, it is a bit like Twain or Einstein, they get stuck with things that they could reasonably indeed have said.-

Yes, I know. I learned to program on a system with 64k, which was only fully available if one used assembly.

512 megs is not a lot for an embedded Linux project these days, but it can do a lot. Especially if you use Lua. ;)
