SETI only uses somewhere aroudn 16MB of memory. With that
and all of windows overhead, you could easily get by on 64MB.
But I would highly recommend 128-256 if your also "using" the
computer while it's crunching.

with v3.03 & Win95 on a P166MMX, there is no difference between 32 & 64Mb... IF it is a dedicated cruncher...

On my old W98 and Cel300, I had 32MB, and that was getting squeezed.
I would recommend 64MB bare minimum.
My dedicated "farm-hands" all run 128MB minimum.

Coming from a 64MB computer, I would definatly go for the 128MB. I never used this computer as a dedicated cruncher, but it seems like Windows allways hogged up the memory.
