DAD DIDN'T FORGET THE MEMORY

Several weeks ago Dallin observed that our home computer performance would be improved with more RAM/memory. We were a bit low by 2008 standards with only 256MB with most new computers having upwards of 2 G. Unfortunately the home computer has really "special" Dell memory that has to be upgraded in pairs and it's pretty expensive. After numerous ebay bids over several weeks and lowering our sights from adding a whole 1G we settled for a half a gig. Combined with our existing 256 MB .... which remained... we are up to 768 MB about 3/4G.

We will wait to hear the reviews from the girls/prime users. Are we "fast" or what?
p.s. If you want to check the specs on your computer (including memory) go to this site and download a free copy of their program. They will produce a printout that will tell you everything about your computer even down to the serial number - Belarc Advisor.
