That sounds like an problem Windows could solve.

Windows traces back to running comfortably with 4 MB, and my first Linux distro, Slackaware run with 32 MB.

We can start by throwing all that Electron junk out of the window, pun intended.

Also sounds like a problem they don’t want to solve…

If people have to buy new PCs, that’s more $$$ for Microsoft.
