Hi CH,

Hmmm I havent seen any performance decrease but then I upgraded my system at
the same time as getting the extra memory anyway. Was the performance
problem mostly under Linux or Windows?

AFAIK Windows 95/98/Me won't use any memory past 128Mb but Windows NT/2000
should use all 256Mb. Linux will of course use all 256Mb.
I primarily got 256Mb so I can run VMware with 128Mb for the virtual machines
to use and it is working very well. I'm hardly using any swap at all now 8)
