Crazy stuff, but I guess for normal > people who use PC with 1TB disk, it should not be a big deal. I have not installed Atmel Studio 6 myself. But I have installed the previous version Atmel AVR Studio 5 under a Windows 7 x64 machine with only 2GB memory, it works fine albeit a bit slow. Interestingly now my main home machine is a Mac Mini 2011 which I upgraded the memory to 8GB (before it was 2GB and OS X Lion 10.7.4 was really slow). I have installed many VirtualBox VM on this Mac Mini (XP, XP64, Vista 64, Win7 x86, Ubuntu Linux 12.04, FreeBSD 9, OpenBSD, NetBSD, etc) and they seem to run fine, Windows 8 Release Preview does not run very smooth though. But if I were to use Bootcamp to run Windows, I would not put only 20GB for it, that is really too small if you intend to do any real development under the Windows OS. My Win 7 VM is about 80GB. All the VMs add to about 250GB, occupying about half of the total disk space for the Mac Mini's 500GB. --=20 Xiaofan --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
