what do you guys think:
i have a Thinkpad X22 with these specs:
PIII 800MHz
128MB PC133 (built in)
40GB 5400rpm HD
windows xp pro
i want to upgrade the ram (1 open slot), so my choice is either a 256MB (~$35) or 512MB (~$90) sodimm. since 128mb is built in, my totals will either be 384mb or 640mb (for the mathematically impaired
).
i use my laptop for ms office, vb programming, mp3's, websurfing, etc. biggest problem is when i try to do any of those things at the same time. my system starts to crawl.
do you think 384mb would be sufficient? will i be regretting not getting 640mb later down the road?
