Atom Life memory capacity

[kennice]

According to the spec. of Atom Life, ROM/RAM should be 1GB/64MB.
But actually on the system it shows, 795.28/48.36MB.
Anybody know why it's so much diffrent from spec.?

I don't have a Life myself <snicker>, but the same thing happens on the Exec.

It's rated to have 128MB/64MB ROM/RAM but it comes out as 98.26MB and 49.89MB respectively. I don't get this either. Could someone explain?

I was trying to compute it with the idea that 1MB = 1,048,576 bytes but it doesn't work.

Actually, atom exec is rated to have 192MB ROM. A part of it is used to store the OS :)

Ah, I see.

Well I can see the OS (or parts of it) stored on the accessible part 98MB part (when I go into the Windows directory), so I take it the "non-accessible" part is where the back up of the OS is stored? The one that you can restore from when you do a hard reset?

And are you sure it's 192MB ROM? That means WinCE 5 takes up like 100MBs?!
