It sounds like you've answered most of your own questions already. (Are there
two of you?)
There's a good explanation for how to calculate RAM usage in the installation
guide. Check it out. You'll see that bitmaps only take up 4 bytes per pixel.
They're all expanded into a 64-bit a-buffer on a scaline basis, but that
doesn't take much extra RAM.
