I want to speed up my PC by adding RAM. It takes up to 2GB at 400Mhz but like most package computers will only accept low density RAM. Who invented high density RAM anyway? Why cant they keep things simple?!

It's cheaper to use high density RAM since you're dealing with less number of modules. The downside to that is that NOT ALL chipsets are compatible with high density RAM and they may be slower than low density RAM.
Low density RAM costs more but is more compatible than high density RAM. You get what you pay for.
Read the following Guide.

You should stick with low density RAM.

I don't know, but I make more money selling older memory than newer memory.
I can sell a 1 gig stick HD ram for $50
Alternatively I can sell two 512meg sticks of PC133 for $100. PC100 is even better.
It's like gold. Pure gold because the ram standards change every 6 months now. So if you buy a new top of the line system today. The Ram production for it will cease in six months.
