I have a couple of computer and one of them only had 128 meg of memory. So today I finally got some cash and I bough 256 DDR. What a difference! It wasnt a major upgrade but it increased my computer performance quite a bit.

Just thought I would share.....

Sneak: with all that computing power, I hope you're putting unused cycles to work on one of the OC.Com distributed computing teams

I have a Seti Crunching Farm myself, and there are quite a few people with farms for Seti and Folding.

I had the same upgrade experience on my new rig, loading windows from the log in screen went from about 5 mins to about 5 seconds, great improvement there, and no more slowdown while multitasking. Good upgrade overall.
