So? The recommendation to which I responded was to upgrade to 1GB. My
message was to agree with Shenan that that's probably overkill.

Whether she should upgrade her RAM at all I don't know, because I
don't know what apps she runs. However, noting that she has 54.77 MB
unused, my guess is probably not.

I disagree. Roxie now has 56MB of free physical memory - memory

stop some swap file usage, but if nothing changed and Roxie has
freed up
space on the hard disk drive - RAM is not the (only) issue.


I share your disagreement. In fact it is rare that anyone needs as
much as 1GB of RAM with Windows XP. Only if someone runs
particularly
memory-demanding programs (such as photo- or video-editing) is it
likely that more than 512MB is needed (and not always that much
either).

What? Is that some sort of threat?

Ken's last sentence was: "However, noting that she has 54.77 MB unused,
my guess is probably not." What about it? Did you miss the word
"unused"?




No, not of what you're trying to contribute to this thread, if anything.

I should have learned from previous sword-crossings with you; trying to
coax rationality and coherence out of you isn't worth the effort.




See, like I just said, it's not worth the effort. You know, sometimes you
contribute intelligently here, yet other times you really just come across
as a complete... well, it sounds like you're undergoing Disjointed Speaking
Training with a Zen Master or something.

I've tried to clarify, for myself as well as the OP, what your objection to
Ken's advice was, but you can't be bothered. If you think Roxie should
increase RAM to 512MB, then just say so.

I'll leave the last word in this sub-thread to you, as I'm sure you'll have
something sparkling to say now...
