FYI, if you use Windows 98, don't bother with more than 512 mb of RAM, 2k will
address up to 3 gb.

Linux I don't know, but after about 512mb even in linux I'd bet you won't see a
huge performance boost ;p

Unless you do intense grafx work with GIMP.  I'm sure someone else can correct
or confirm this
