I took the chance on RAM, figured 'what do I have to
lose?'   Worst case scenario the BIOS doesn't see it
and map it . . . so first I got a 512MB (since I had
two 256), removed one 256, popped in 512, and upon
reboot system recognizes 768MB.  :)      

Of course then I went and got another 512 and yup, now
have a gig of RAM recognized by system.  Nice.   


Where do I notice improvement?  DVD, mp3, etc.


Of course battery life is about one hour to one hour
and a half, which I think is a total waste!  So I have
3 batteries fully charged.   Next laptop has to have
longer battery life.


cheers!
