Oh, I see. Why get more RAM if running all your applications at the same time doesn't use up all the memory. Makes sense to me. Adding more memory, might, speed things up. You got a pentium 4. I think you can add more memory to speed things up. You will have to if you upgrade to Vista. I think. In the old days something called L2 cache decided how much memory you could add. I think you can add as much as you want nowadays.
