The consensus was that the computer was too old to try to upgrade memory.
A 1.7 GHz Pentium 4 is not too old except for gamers.

Common sense tells us that zeros weigh more than ones, consider how much more
ink you need to display a zero than a one, or how many more pixels are required
to display a zero.

On that suggestion. Go to crucial look up your memory.
Then using their stock numbers go to other sites and see what they charge.
Also note compatible memory.
The only time I have gotten memory that did not work was when I got
it on Ebay and the shyster was selling some memory that would
I just compared CC to DataMem. DataMem had a good memory finder and was
$29 for 512. CC had no memory finder and did not have an exact match for
what I was looking for. They had something that should work, but that was
$38. Big difference in service and price.
Correction. CC does have
But don't forget the zeros and ones are traveling at high speed across
copper wire...a zero is far more aerodynamic then a vertical one. I saw a
BMW put a zero and a one in one of their wind tunnels against a one of their

The board is capable of running both 33 and 400 with the 400 being
the upper limit.
The AMD chips in the XP series (I think that is what they were

I had a board that topped out at 333 (166x2) so I could not run the
faster 200 chips.

Awhile back, there was some discussion about the degradation of product
quality, both on the manufacturer side as well as the consumer
acceptance side. I ran across this Business Week article which seems to
hit the nail on the head:

The question was centered around the AMD 2.n chip
and older style memory. I had a system with 512

I'm thinking of giving an ebook reader to someone who loves reading
books and takes Metro to work. I'm trying to choose between the
Sony Reader, Amazon's Kindle, or waiting. Any experiences, concerns,
or suggestions to share? TIA.
I hate ebooks.
I travel a lot. I carry paperback books.
