  48. ECHO.
  49. ECHO Switches:  /Q ^(quiet^) and /S ^(silent^) display the amount of RAM
  50. ECHO                       installed on the computer as a number only
  51. ECHO            /V ^(verbose^) also tells what it is displaying ^(default^)
  52. ECHO.
  53. ECHO This batch file uses NT's native WINMSD.EXE to check the amount of
  54. ECHO RAM installed.
  55. ECHO If you find it too slow and you have a copy of the Windows NT
  56. ECHO Resource Kit you can use MEMORY.BAT instead.
  57. ECHO MEMORY.BAT uses PSTAT.EXE to check the amount of RAM installed,
  58. ECHO which is a lot faster.
  59. ECHO MEMORY.BAT is available at http://www.robvanderwoude.com too.
