Why Upgrade Laptop Memory?
With laptop computer and notebook prices at an all time low, all of the major PC manufacturers are cutting a few corners to keep from losing money. One of the places to cut costs is the memory or RAM of the computer. Windows XP and Windows Vista can both function with minimal amount of memory installed, but the cost to you is a slower computer that doesn’t perform at optimal speeds when you have many application windows open. The solution is to upgrade the memory in your laptop computer. A memory upgrade requires opening a small compartment on the bottom of your laptop, sometimes using a screwdriver, but generally there’s a simple lever that opens the memory compartment. This sounds scarier than it actually is – the compartment almost always has a picture to show you how to properly place the memory inside.
