Second Life: A Memory Hog, Indeed

My computer isn't that old, but in order to run Second Life, I've had to upgrade my computer memory to 1 GB so that I can have it and maybe one other application running. Last night, I think I tested the limits of my PC by having SL and two other applications open. Got a virtual memory warning! EEK! Yeah, it's not the blue screen of death or anything, but I never like getting warnings of any sort on my PC. And I've been told that Windows Vista is also a memory hog...so maybe I'll need to go up to 2 GB when I upgrade from XP to that (after the first service pack...need the first bugs worked out).
