lol -- absolutely -- interversion squabbles are wholly accepted, lol. as for the vm point -- I've noted elsewhere similar things to do on setting up VM, as laying back tells it correctly. It does not matter what the program is, windows will only allow it to have 2GB for itself. What a lot of programs do, however, is add into themselves their own method that works with it -- photoshop is a good example of this. They essentially make their own VM that is used, bypassing the windows system so that they can handle larger vm sizes -- sorta like doubling up the same thing. That's some pretty serious coding to do, however. Which is why not a lot of applications do it. There's additional considerations as well, but that's the core one.
