Hi Eric- Lots of us are running the S900 with maximum RAM with no problems. There were some issues with bad RAM being sold and it took some patience with the supplier and an investing of time to test and find the bad sticks. I think most of us went through that successfully (cursing and stomping). RAM is everything! As much as you can afford is what you should get... especially if you're working with any apps that deal with large images, video, sound. If you are just doing word processing, email, those kinds of things, then you might have enough. If you're planning to upgrade to Jaguar, then get more. Things run faster and better when you have enough memory and apply more memory usage to various apps. So, (long windedly) there are advantages to more RAM and I would say, as long as the RAM is good, the only disadvantage is to your wallet. dan_A -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
