The whole system has only 1 GB RAM. I guess I could give the VM 512 MB, but all I'll primarily be doing with it is Office - and maybe ssh. It's been awhile since I really did any in-depth work with Windows, but I thought that 256 MB would be enough for XP and Office - is that the case (note that the installer, which was told this was going to be a Windows XP VM, only recommended 192 MB)?
