My PC has 16GB yes ;p I've started my post by saying this using bitmaps could be a terrible idea, it all depends on the project (design, hardware target, etc...).

Who does not at least have an i7, 16 GB and a GTX 580? :)

Me, my graphic card is rather old ;p The Xbox360 and Windows Phones too (possible targets for XNA).

Uhm, you do know that that means that he must set up custom data structures and custom shaders?

I think we might have a language issue here. You seem to be saying he can use the same data structures as those "ou find in a pixel shader or a vertex shader" and perform the hit test on the GPU, right?

Do you all guys have too much memory and don't know what to do with it?

1 Gb physical, and some swap-space. A 320x200 bitmap, scaled to 640x400 would still look "decent". Not much wasted space if you only use a few colours. As for practicality; you might want to use two worldmaps, one where you can select a continent, then a version where you select the country. That way you limit the colours you need :) Next!
