Do they have a kit to use a USB flash drive into RAM?
And I don't mean Windows Vista ready boost feature, i'd like to open the computer and plug the drive into an adapter which is plugged into the RAM slot on the motherboard.

First off, hand help pc's (like the treo or the ipaq) do use flash as RAM, but desktop PC's need more speed and durability than flash can give. Flash memory wears out much faster than RAM and is only expected to handle somewhere between one thousand and a hundred thousand rewrites so you would probably have to replace it quite frequently if you were able to speed it up enough to use it as pc RAM.

No, flash mem is nowhere as fast as RAM any way, and can't be talked to by the onboard memory controller.
