RE: [MLUG] ram issues?

["Ross, Matt" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Ok, I'm convinced.  I'll just let my parents old PC die ;-)
I've got a similar operation to do, but a slightly newer gateway.  The ram
is almost impossible to find, and then very expensive, so after this, I
think I'll take my own advice and scrap it.  I may be able to convince my
parents to sell the parts (it being the oldest computer, I don't think we
want to swap its parts with the others ;-)
