Hey durden, do you know of a program that tells you where every bit of your memory is being taken up by what?

Thanks in advance,
VCB

Superb thread and original post durden, all that work you did is appreciated.

Update! I added new pictures to this thread in the first post, cleaned it up a bit and, added a few new apps which rock. Pictomio, being one of them. A great 3-D-ish sort of picture viewer...

Mikeyeg from above, you'd asked if ALL these are Vista compatable? The short answer is no. The long answer would involve me getting into a long winded rant about why I really think Vista was 2007's worst product from a volume stand point. There might of been products from 2007 which preformed worse or didn't deliever less then Vista but, from the sheer volume of people using, or going to use it, it's def the worst. And not JUST because it's got compatibility issues, to me that's somewhat understandable, again because of the sheer volume of programs which have to intergrate with it, compatability is the lesser of Vista's many evils. But, I'm stopping here. Because I could go on and on.
