no no no no no dont do it (there is a way, if you really want to try it)

dude, it barely even runs on 1gb. The minimum spec of 512 is a joke.

I think Windows Vista Starter will run by default with 256MB of RAM; for others there is an illegal patch available which is STRONGLY NOT ADVISABLE. Dont think of Vista if you dont have atleast 1GB RAM.

i think it can be disabled by using a custom installer .sif file. Thats how you get xp to install on machines with ~16mb of ram (you can do it using nlite to edit the sif file)
