[QUOTE="kgeier82, post: 652301, member: 23394"] i just bought 4GB of some nice ram for the MBP. im having a bit of an issue with all the ram being sucked up, and then having page in/out's going on a lot. when i start the system, im using about 800-900MB, thats all normal and all. i give parallels 1gb and start it. I should be at around 2GB free now right? WRONG.
