Post: > Sorry if this was already asked, but will geting more memory(512mb more then > my current 256) raise my recent average credit by much? > If all your doing is crunching, a little email,And your favorite recipies then 256Mb should be plenty.Windows suggests 512Mbs If you plan on running some of the newer games for instance whle running Seti then an upgrade is best. Alot of newer programs, especially Games,Run best with at least a Gig Some as high as 2gig.This allows enough space to run Apps and services plus programs. |

Now for the sake of argument I'll assume that a species that has the technology to transmit over the vastness of space should most likley have a written language or at the least the abillity to discribe thier surroundings. Lets only hope that if whales start communicating to earth ,we have a vulcan standing by. Note:English and litature was not my strong subject in school. |
