: So VM is not essential, since all it does is save the need to buy
: real memory?

I really dislike VM. If I need to run something that my real RAM can't
handle, more than likely it's already pretty slow/computationally taxing.
VM just makes things worse.

And VM most definately does not "save the need to buy real memory". It's a
slow desperate solution. If you need more memory, buy more memory. Your
fancy processor doesn't help much if you swap continously.
