Thanks for the feedback. I figured I'd be covered with the setup as it
is, but you never know... unless you know. This thing never sleeps...
so no worries there.

Anyway, I just popped 'em in:

$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       2074548     166048    1908500          0       6812      77284
-/+ buffers/cache:      81952    1992596
Swap:      1000432          0    1000432

[ Nice. I like that last line a lot. ]

Cheers,
