    Amazon have the collectors editions at 25 quid - cheaper than the standard edition there.

    Again, based on my testing, the demo at least doesn't - 200 odd unit skirmish and total RAM usage including junk was around 600mb (under XP). I didn't think Vista would be so much of a draw to take it over the 1gb mark. Maybe the full game uses more.

    Factors to consider:
    -Skirmish map is tiny
    -200 units is not very many
    -Vista is more of a resource hog

    Id say you need 2GB ram, infact serious gamers should really all have 2GB ram.

    Got mine this morning. Only had a go at a skirmish or 2, but can already see that is the same as TA, but much better Also had a go at the dual monitor setup to see how it looked. It's a good idea, but couldn't quite get used to it, mainly because I am so used to edge-of-screen scrolling. My computer couldn't quite handle it towards the end of the skirmish either, so will resort back to one monitor until I upgrade.

    My tech-tree pullout is also in French!

    It's playable at medium settings with 1GB of RAM. I've just done a new build and are waiting for my RAM otherwise i'd have 2. My athlon and 2gig was far faster than my C2D and 1gig thats for sure.
