Well the RAM can be changed at any time the virtual machine is off--unless the maximum disk size which is trickier--so you don't have to settle with a value from the beginning. 64 MB will cause more or less severe trashing of the HD pagefile depending on what you're running. Anyway 256 MB never caused any problems with the Win3.1 games I have, of course it could happen with DOS real mode games, but those are for DOSBox. Again you can change the amount of RAM at any time (just like in a real machine, except that you only have to access a menu instead of opening the case).
