The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    I also have 49 running, with 683mb ram. I would be using around 500mb normally but Firefox is using kind of a lot of ram.

    XP SP2

    21 Processes at startup

    Could kill the nvidia tray icon too, but that's useful.

    I usually have about 25 running (pidgin, newsleecher, firefox, utorrent)
