Win 10 uses a LOT less bytes on the drive it's installed on than Win 7 did, 10 gigs or more less, but what about running memory?

I was thinking about getting more memory for my laptop, which has 4 gigs now, so I checked to see what it was using. I have Firefox with 13 tabs open, Edge with one, Thunderbird with my email, two file explorer windows, the task manager and a Freecell game all open and I'm using 2.4 gigs. I could have sworn Win 7 used more memory than this or do I just remember wrong?

Nope you're not wrong. Win10 uses less RAM too - runs amazingly well on1GB and 2GB machines.  More is pretty much always better though
