That's not a difficult point to grasp, is it?
Vista only uses up the RAM when nothing else is. No program will ever suddenly be turned down access to RAM because Vista is using it. Stop being idiots.

low memory usage. how much does vista use when stripped back as far as it goes?

Vista's new graphics ("DWM, desktop window manager") eat 15-20MB, but you can disable even that (it'll still look better than XP's over-saturated blue borders imo). Without Superfetch and DWM my system is sitting just under 300MB when doing nothing (not that I normally disable Superfetch, again, read Circ's post above).
