Hi, i have an old Dell C400 that I keep at university solely for word processing and web browsing. Problem is it is that it is very slow - will not respond for 30s when autosaving a document and crashing with only a few tabs open in a browser.
It currently has 256MB of ram hardwired to the motherboard and one slot available for a 512MB upgrade. The question is, will a 512MB upgrade (US$150 for 512MB!!!!) be enough for me to plod along with this computer?..... I am really attached to this laptop, it is the smallest yet most solid feeling and unbreakable laptop I have ever had.

Thanks for any help,

-Steve
 
Only one way to find out. lol

Netbooks are becoming very inexpensive, but if it's worth it to you
then take the chance and flip for the RAM.
