Mmmm. Normally I'd think the same thing, except that I've already been through the bad RAM episode last year with this computer. I had the RAM replaced and, as you said, all was well. I guess I should test it again anyway to be sure. The scary thing was that last time I used a RAMtester it didn't find anything, but the RAM _was_ corrupt. Yikes.
