As it happens I managed to get a gig of ram as 2x 512MB at the local CeX (Computer Exchange) shop. Doubled the memory in an old P4 system to a very healthy 2G for £6 :) They may be worth trying for RAM if you have one local. -- *Deluxe Technology Ltd* /Linux Consultant/ mhous...@deluxe-tech.co.

Will have a look, was clearing the attic yesterday and I saw some old ram, but I think they were only 256mb (2 off). Whats in it and does it have to be matched pairs? -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Hi Bruce, I just took a quick look on Amazon and I've seen some 1GB RAM sticks for around £15-20, if that's a price you'd be looking for? Thanks and Regards, Liam Gallear On 20 Jun 2011, at 15:16, Bruce Beardall wrote: > Dear All > > Apologies for an off-topic query but I’m looking for old
