[QUOTE="JakeXPMan, post: 312761, member: 29270"] Thanks for all the information on Lubuntu, the sandboxie and other links and programs. :cool: Another OS or PC might be an option in the Spring, if I have some funds to dip into. I checked eBay for Windows 7, but it's really expensive over $60+ dollars, lol... no thanks. :p I installed the 1 GB of memory (happends to be a samsung as well) and its working perfectly, even better speed and smoothness then I expected, it sure swaps easier on the HD without hardly having to use the Disk Space now. Don't have to wait for anti-virus to update either, I can multi-task a lot! :) I bought it from [URL='http://www.computermemoryoutlet.com/']http://www.computermemoryoutlet.com/ [/URL] their 1GB was the cheapest, only $10! ... whereas on [B]eBay [/B]it was $17 and [B]crucial[/B] $28. Now I increased my Virtual Memory size from 768/768 to 2250/2250 same max as inital, Now, ... is 2250 a bit BIG for a 1.5 GB RAM? seems like even during multi-task, it never reaches past 1000. o_O Although my HD space only went down 2% from 43% to 41%, not a big deal. :) [/QUOTE]
