[Ham-Computers] RE: Link for AVG 7.5

It just seems to run better with 2GB rather than 1 (although my home "internet" box is only running 1GB).  I work in IT, and I've seen a lot of machines that were "under-RAMmed" - and more memory almost always speeds them up.  That's not really a fault of the machines, but rather that the programs we all use (and hate?) keep getting bigger - including AVG, it seems.
   
  Vista for sure really likes having more memory!

I agree with everything Aaron said, but I must ask you Jay - why do you 
feel 2GB is the sweet spot for ram on a XP box running 32 bit home/pro?
