Surveying calculations don't require a lot of memory. In the old days nobody had computers except engineers, surveyors & bankers & computers were designed to compute. Microsoft is getting more worthless everyday. It no longer caters to the scientific community. It has become an electronic gossip fence & marketing propaganda machine. I'm sick of microsoft & don't want any of their micky mouse products. Windows is a very poor platform for scientific applications. It is for Suzie Q housewife to bs with her friends & find junk to buy to waste her husbands money.
