Windows vista uses 900mb of RAM at boot. Linux less than 300mb

I have been playing around with Xubuntu and I have all the fancy compiz-fusion effects up and running on my laptop. I noticed that it uses 2/3rds less RAM than my desktop running windows vista. The 3d effects of compiz-fusion is far better than Vista's yet uses less RAM. Check out this video of Xubuntu running on old hardware.



I admit its kinda nerdy, but whatever.
