Memory 'needs' increase exponentially in a Moore's Law like process that is entirely unrelated to Linux. You can still run Linux on tiny systems (I know people running 2.6 on systems smaller than 32MB), which is not true of any recent version of Windows.

Your conclusion simply does not follow from Nick Piggin's quite reasonable postulate.
