128 MB memory. The alpha emulator. Suddenly wake up.

Still remember for old time sake do some 360 assemble on an emulator. Suddenly I aware that is 16 MB not GB ... and I use a 24 MB one to support thousands of users in 1980s.

Those really were the days.

Oh nice tip, I didn't know that - Now I'll have to see if I can run a VMS VM inside my Windows VM... Turtles all the way down.

Would be humorous considering the NT platform was heavily inspired by VMS.

To the point that one can find similar APIs when reading VMS documentation.
