So apparently an actual company out in the world somewhere decided that it would be a good idea to say that 86 percent of Windows 7 machines are using 90-95 percent of their physical memory. Okay, so it was a representative of the company. The company in question is Devil Mountain Software who owns the site xpnet.com. The representitive in question posted on a company blog at exo-blog about how Win 7 is a system memory hog. Apparently this was a data mining venture that was incorrectly compiled or read. Below is a link to this sites blog and it's interesting complaint about how Windows 7 manages it's memory over older platforms.

People complained about Vista without actually understanding the issue (or lack of an issue, rather). Bunch of nonsense.
