Oh & thanks guys for the answers to my last question.

[combined] System resources refers to your ram, virtual memory, kernal, processor and all sorts of stuff. So when it says you have 70% free I would say it's referring to the combined usage of your ram (and virtual memory), processor, and maybe the kernal...

Susan, it depends on the programs you open up - some programs would only allow you to open up one more program before your machine grinds to a halt :p
