I can't believe it but supposedly, I have 23% free, I don't understand how I
should have a lot more then that, time to check things out I guess, I have
512 megs right now, hmmm I'm not sure if that's right though, it isn't
reporting the right memory amount for the computer, this one never has,
something to do with when it's booting and it's figuring that out the on
board video takes over some memory that it later gives back is how it was
explained to me by the manufacturer, causing those numbers to be inaccurate,
it says I have 480 MB
