Did you know that Linux has far superior RAM management than Windows? For example, Minecraft with Forge with 78 mods loaded gave me an "Out of memory" eror on Windows 7. On Linux, i ran the same game, twice, 25fps each.

And i ran Task Manager and xfce-screenshooter to take the screenshot without problems. Shit i love Linux!

Say Windows what?
