>>Hi,

>>I am looking at a couple of Windows 10/8 tablets that have 2GB of RAM. I want to develop a small application (for spare parts stock room) for one of these tablets. My concern is of how a VFP 9 app will work with 2GB of RAM.

In fact even when I run Web Connection server apps for days max memory usage tends to be in the 60 meg range which is nothing given a 2 gig address space. Windows obviously takes up a lot of space, but if you keep to just running what you need on WIndows 2 gig should be enough.

I was talking not about a real computer but an inexpensive tablet (e.g. NuVision) that comes with 2GB of RAM.
Thank you.
