They keep installing it on NTFS and then come to me crying that it doesn't work as advertised and keep asking why XP uses over 1GB RAM.


That's kind of odd, considering Microsoft recommended NTFS for XP installations. I ran it that way for years without a problem, at least related to the file system.

I can see running into memory issues if you're trying to run NTFS on a big ass disk with insufficient memory, but that's not an issue limited to NTFS.
