Still remember how expensive it was to just upgrade your RAM? Even though it is now going into DDR3 version, but some are still looking for ddr RAM, which is about to be a dinosaur already. But the point is not this though…
What I’m trying to say is that, it has becoming so common to us to upgrade our computer RAM. 5 years back, upgrading a RAM is death expensive where you need to consider your finance before upgrading; but now, you’re looking at your machine to upgrade, is your machine fit with 4GB RAM or 8GB RAM?

Seriously, the scenario has changed, from forking out money to now consider the machine itself. Some ddr RAM still cost hundred, just because it is limited already, while DDR2 RAM is the cheapest now, where you can get 2GB for RM75 (less than USD25).
I posted that I bought a pair of 1GB RAM for my Macbook, and now, it runs like a superman, these are how it looks this days, after the upgrade…

This is the first time that they run together without lagging and of course, no crashing! Like previously, when I just use both Photoshop and Illustrator, it will crash either one of them, or crash together, man, aren’t they have a good teamwork?!
Anyway, what is RAM, friend often asked when I tell them to upgrade their ram. A ram- Random Access Memory – is a kind of computer storage, unlike hard disk, it store the data of applications/softwares that you’ve opened before, in order to make it open faster and leave more space for other applications/software, you need more RAM. That is why my Macbook runs more than 5 applications without any problem
