Way back in the mists of time I got a 32MB (not a typo) upgrade for an 8MB computer. In total: 40MB.
Since I knew it ran fine with just the 8MB, I set up a RAM disk of 32MB and put the Windows swap file in it. Windows absolutely insisted (and maybe still does) that there be a swap file, so why not put that back in RAM?
It worked perfectly, but that memory was better used for other things, so the cursed setup didn’t last all that long.
This is so cursed that I want to try it out.
You like cursed?

You should have seen it when the typos were still in it. Now try to figure out whether the parenthetical was there before the edits.
Ah i didn’t see it before edits, but still a hit funny to see it
Let me know how it goes, lmao
My bet is that simple CLI apps will kind of work but having a graphic environment would just freeze.
