>>Would Visual Studio 2008 work on a small HP Pavilion DV4250US Laptop that has a MAX of 2 GB of RAM? How about SQL Server 2008? If it will work, I am thinking about putting a larger laptop hard drive into the laptop.

>Typical apps, yes. For really large apps (many assemblies and layers), they will be really slow debugging but will definitely run. It will absolutely work though. I used VS2008 and SQLServer 2005 on a Dell Latitude D610 laptop with only 2GB until just recently when I upgraded to D630..

I have 4GB and VS 2010 is very slowwwwwwwwww....
