Why havnt u loaded up your computer system with ungodly amounts of ram?

not much money?
Hey if u smoke stop for 2 weeks and u can buy about 1GB

dont know how?
putting it in is easy, goes in only 1 place and 1 direction. screw it up and you are a moron. however the trick is in selection, know what u need.

dont think u need more?
well i had ~650MB and just loaded to ~1.1GB. its cheap i payed 22 for each 512DDR2100. get it now before price goes up!

yes rioght now is the time to get it. price is low and it will start to rise for holidays.
honestly i dont know how some of you can stand to still be useing 64MB ram, there is alot of preformance you can gain with more memory.

so what do you guys have?

saving up to build a AMD64 system right now. i am building a guy across the street a new system. selling it to hime for ~200, basicly bare bones. reusing stuff like CD-RW, bought last year and monitor.

sadly i have to tell him, NO SMOKING and ashing near and on it!

that killed to old system. traces on mainboad had been eaten by the ash/smoke and it had gotten cloged. i only hope i can salvage the CDRW, last i checked, it works.

i will install a few filtration systems, but still. you shouldn't smoke near sensitive electronic devices

1 gig of DDR400 right now. Asus, I belive. I'll go buy another gig rather soon, if they market looks good. I know for sure my board will support at least one more gig, but it may support two more. I have to check again.

In my laptop I have 521mb of some form of ram.

64mb in my other desktop of some older ram.

A few kilobytes in my TI-99/4A, iirc.

Silly poll... you split the options more or less at the standard values (half the answers given on the thread meant two choices.)

I have 128 here, 32 on the older machine.

And no, a guilty "yeah, it's not much" isn't coming.

I can remember when RAM was $60 per MEG! :P
Can you imagine spending $60,000 for 1 GIG of memory?

No sir, and I wouldn't do it either :P

512MB Samsung DDR @ 333mhz. One vacant slot atm. Can add up to another 2GB when necessary.

Old PC has 192MB of some old-fashioned RAM, upgraded from 64MB.

Old Psion Series 3 has 1MB.

Casio PC-Unite watch has 24KB :)

yes, i remember that.

on our first system my mother was amazed she had saved enought to buy 8MB for our 486 system. she had to buy 2 sticks of 4MB and i think it cost her like 200 or something.
however at $60 a meg it would be link 480

when i first learned how to use a system our school shelled out alot to have systems that had at least 1024k, 1MB and on the system i was useing they shelled out a ton of money.

specs
386DX/33
4MB ram
~300 HD
odd netowrking card
dual VGA (no SVGA) card, used for demenstrations and such
387 (math co-CPU)
that was like in 1988-89, we came here in early 1987.

I remember being trained in BASIC and a few other languages. i remember writing batch files, and programing a rather complex robot that was horribly annoying

256 exactly...I voted for the higher one to make me feel better.

Actualy, I have no need for more. I have no 3d card so it wouldnt help games out much, and my processor is a 700mhz Celeron, so it wouldn;t help other processes out either. I guess I COULD go up to 512, but I really dont feel like it.
