Computer ram prices are currently at an all time low, I have seen allot of Laptops and desktops advertised as coming with 2,3,4 GB of ram, boldly highlighted to take the attention away from its short comings.
In truth adding more ram will not make a PC faster, unless it’s actually running out of available ram to begin with.
For general (office/web) use 1GB and 2 GB is more than you need for windows XP and Vista respectively.
Don't be fooled into buying a 3 year old laptop because "it now comes with 4GB ram", Its a great ploy from the seller, but the average end user ends up getting old tech and never runs any software that needs to look past 2GB let alone 3GB.
Summary: extra ram does not make a computer faster, unless its actually running out of ram to begin with.
