My HP laptop specifications state that my laptop will not support 4GB of RAM
since HP apparently is concerned with the power required to support it and
therefore with the amount of heat that would be generated if it was
installed.
I run Win7 on it with 1GB of RAM without problem and with 5-7 desktop
applications running concurently.
Question: what application do you run that will actually perform better with
more then 2GB of RAM.? Is it a video editing or database management
program?
