No problems what so ever. So my recommendation is if you got a gb or more upgrade. -----Original Message-----From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On BehalfOf Rick Harmon Sent: Sunday, December 30, 2007 8:45 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Vista and memory 2 gigs is the sweet spot for Vista and my machine has 4 gigs and works great.

This is one view. Mister Asner is a very strong advocate for the opposing view. The best thing to do is to ask around and decidefor yourself, since both of us can offer equally compeling reasons for ouropinions.

Seems a strange thing to say, but I have heard it before.Generally: My experience with Vista is that the more memory you can chuck into a machine, the better. Whilst many people think my attitude is a bitof overkill, Vista does a lot of behind the scenes stuff and our screen readers also have to work hard, consuming a great deal of resource. Whatever happens, dont' settle for less than 2 gigabytes, and I have four which I have found to be a very stable operation. Vaughan.Hello Listers, I talked with a sales rep from gateway thursday, and he told me vista only sees memory up to 3 gigabytes. Is this true? Thanks.
