It seems its not what you say as much as who said it for it to be belived
Not sure what's up here but lets see if I can clarify.

Vista requires a minimum of 2GB RAM just to load it's services and maintain normal running apps.

GWX will run on an additional 1 GB RAM but 2 GB is recommended by most here. TBH you could probably make do with Vista + GWX running on 3GB RAM if you disabled most of Vista's resource hungry crap.

To give you some idea of how stupid Vista (as an OS) is, I merrily ran XP + GWX on 1GB RAM (combined) and still had one of the fastest loading times throughout the community and a very stable game.
