You like cursed? 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. Edits: Typo city baby.
