Santa brought me a stick of 512MB of RAM for Christmas. This brings me up to a total of 1.5GB of RAM. I really haven't gotten to use it too much yet, but so far I have noticed these small changes. The computer boots up MUCH faster and opens all windows and programs faster. It was a nice stocking stuffer

RAM is not simply a festive gift, but one of thoughtful consideration.

That's love.

"Buy More RAM"

I think ill hav that as a poster behind my desk.

Nothing annoys me more than having to take a look at a colleague/friends PC or Mac and to find they have had some scummy salesperson have them buy a fast CPU and lots of extras but with something lik 256MB of RAM.

The average person needs to be taught about the necessity of a decent chunk of RAM.
I free'd my mind... now it won't come back.

My grandfather has always preached "buy more RAM" for as long as I can remember. I never really paid attention until now. It is fairly cheap and makes quite a difference. Great bang-for-your-buck modification. Plus with an Apple tower it literally takes about one minute to install it.
