It’s Time to Upgrade that RAM…

I’ve been running a Dell laptop with 1GB of RAM since Vista first arrived. The extra money for the extra GB (this laptop maxes out at 2GB) was more than this Scotsman could take.

But RAM prices have dropped lots. I grabbed the scanner at www.crucial.com and picked up two 1GB chips online for a couple pennies under $24 — delivered. Man — if I knew how it would help performance, I may have done it when RAM was $75 for 2GB.

Outlook, QuickVerse, even FireFox load more quickly.

It’s time. Upgrade your RAM.

  1. I think I’ll just upgrade the whole computer. Someday. Soon.

    What are your thoughts on Windows 7?

  2. Everyone hates Vista, but I like it. I really like it since I upgraded my RAM.

    However, I am waiting for Seven to be released before I replace Laurel’s Desktop.

    I’ve been running it on my Desktop at home for months, but I seldom use it since that machine also boots to Linux.

  3. I think I would have liked Vista better if it hadn’t fixed things that weren’t broken.
