Yes, while you may be able to get by with less than a gig of RAM, adding
more will make a big difference in anything that has a lot of disk
activity because of the way it is use for filesystem buffering. If the
motherboard can take it, I'd add more. This is a problem for some older
systems, though. Intel made a lot of 'desktop' motherboards that could
only see 512k.
