2x1GB in my PC at the beginning of 2007 was considered excellent, you'd never have seen standard systems with that back then.

that is a high end system as that is about $900Can & above. most clones systems i get just have a gig of ram & they are low ends. any of the name brand systems have between 2 to 3 gigs of ram.

A friend just gave me this, they took it out of a Computer at his work. At first I thought he gave me a dudd that they were just going to throw away, but it works. Burns good
Does anybody know if this does Bitsetting: TEAC DV-W516GB (rev.J4S2). I don't have any +s 2 try. it will be about 600 DVDs B4 I buy anymore. Probably won't buy +s anyway, I'll just wait till someone brings some by
