No offense but I find comments like these odd on a bittorrent tracker.

Why?  This is a tracker for anime/manga/etc., not software.  There are plenty of people who only download fansubs when the show isn't licensed (in the US, at least) - do you expect that those people would be for software piracy?

There's Mac OSX10.6, which is 64-bit in all versions.  No need to worry about which version to buy either, because there is only one.

With Vista yes lol

Just a moment ago I was sitting on an empty desktop and 7 is eating 1.4GiB of memory. Why does Windows do this? Because it knows I have 8GiB of RAM, it knows it can use more. Vista ran perfectly fine on my old 2 GiB Toshiba A100-VA9. If you want to talk about Ram usage, the Arch installation with Xfce desktop is using less than 350MiB of ram.

I ran Vista perfectly fine with 2.5 GB ram. There was a slight difference when I used my empty MSPD card slot for speed boost (2GB), but nothing huge and amazing. 

I will agree that anything below 2 GB for vista is painful and terrible. But 2 and above seem to be ok enough.
