Some people seem to think that upgrading memory will do wonders for any computer no matter problem, face it, it is not like that.

Of course it isn't. However, I've personally found that with a windows xp machine 256megs can have problems running with multiple apps, and 512megs may be light on memory depending on what you have going in the background. I know a number of people go up to 2 gigs, but unless one is a Major power user, that's overkill right now.

The reason I recommend upping the memory, as one of the first things is that it's cheap, easy, and often works.
