Why don't they understand that 500MB of DDR2 is not enough?!?!?!?!?! It is not the same as 1GB of RAM espcially now that you need about 2GB of DDR2 to do anything anyway!!!!! Stop cutting corners and bing cheap and give people some...sasifrassin!@!# RAM!!!!!
You should carry a stick of ram and a screwdriver in your pocket. I can just picture the guy's at the Internet Cafe:
"Yeah, sure, go ahead, but it is coming out of your rental time..."
