Very funny stuff Tonia! =) I like the Steven Wright approach. It's funny yet 
true, what is a RAM's lifetime? I'm wondering if it's like Craftsman, where 
if you find a broken ratchet of theirs on the ground, they'll replace it. If 
the "Lifetime Warranty" is the "as long as you own it" kind, then it's 
excellent! Very odd that it should fry....maybe it was a 3.3V/5V issue?
