[Ham-Computers] Asking for help upgrading memory

[C. M. Bailey D.L.S.]

Hi
Go to http://www.crucial.com/, there is a RAM Adviser that will tell you 
exactly what RAM you need for your computer....The Crucial Memory 
Advisor™ tool is a quick, *3-step process* to find guaranteed-compatible 
memory for computers and motherboards.
I believe it has a scanner that scan your computer and see what is on it 
also if you wish..
