For that much RAM, nowadays, I'd have swap.  If you have a GB
on a home machine, I'm sure that swap isn't necessary.

Bah!  Real OSs stress hardware, but there's nothing special about
Linux per se.

I can't make you have an abortion, but you can *make* me pay 
child support for 18 years? However, if I want the child (and 
all the expenses that entails) for the *rest*of*my*life*, and 
you don't want it for 9 months, tough luck???
