I am not putting anyone down, but I thought that would be a minimum for our crowd.

i'm still at 512. would it make my downloads/cd burning any faster if I was at a gig :)

With 1 gig you can have a poor man's HD1080 experience. CPU willing of course.

2 GB's in my primary desktop, 1.5 GB in a secondary.

One of these days I'll pick up another 2 x 1 GB DDR2 modules & max the primary out.

I just went and bought another 512 stick after going to the Coinstar, so this week I'll go from 1/2 half to 1.5 gigs. :D

I can't wait.

Best part is that it's two separate orders, placed about 4 hours apart, so I should get two boxes and double the packaging material. Saves me more money for FS/T.
