In fact, I should elaborate. We found out what 300GB of laptop RAM looks like. Three of these trays, each containing 50x 2GB PC2-5300 SO-DIMMs, were delivered to us yesterday.

We’re doing a lot of RAM upgrades this year.

    My laptop already has 4GB. I made sure of that when I specified my replacement last year.

    I wish our place would give us funding for even half of that!

    That’s nothing – I’ve worked at a big computer company where you could pickup trays of OEM CPUs worth £100k :)
