Not that tiny no. I have Oracle8i on a 64meg laptop running Windows NT. It runs under that configuration, but painfully. There's a whole lot of swappin' going on. I only use it for the occasional demo. I also have had 8i running on a 96 meg machine running NT. That configuration was tolerable (for experimenting and such), but when I added Enterprise Manager and Webdb, even 96 megs wasn't enough. I have OEM, Webdb, ond 8i on a 128 meg machine, and that seems to work fine.
