That may be, but the assumptions behind its development are those of an organisation with a culture of over-written code ... end result, a pocket-sized OS with a desktop-sized mentality. Why else would a PocketPC device require twice the RAM of a comparable PalmOS device to perform essentially the same set of tasks?
