The difference is when you find out that you need to deal with a low memory problem - in a well defined place (as soon as you try to allocate the memory) where it's easy to control the circumstances, or "at any time, almost anywhere" where you have to worry about the least convenient circumstances.

Note: If all computers had the same amount of RAM and no OS supported multi-tasking; then you wouldn't need to care much about this kind of thing. In other words; writing games for game consoles would be quite different to writing software for general purpose systems.
