I realise these icons in now way represent the whole picture, but am curious to know what the average is out there (RAM usage, process numbers, CPU usage)

My system at idle is using...

198MB RAM
26 process
0~1% cpu usage

Also noticed after I go around to look at mates pc's, is that invariably with brand pc's, because of all the preinstalled crap, thier start up is REALLY slow, with nearly every programs set to run at start up. Some with over 50 process's going.
