Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Here's the specs on the memory for that machine:
Each memory slot can hold DDR2 PC2-6400,DDR2 PC2-5300 with a maximum of 2GB per slot.
No you do not need to install a matching pair on this machine, but you might suffer a slight performance hit since you won't get the benefits of dual channel memory.

Does that mean the slots can hold either the PC2-6400 or the PC2-5300?

(I swear, I consider myself pretty tech-savvy, having had two separate support techs tell me I knew a lot about computers "for a girl", but this laptop stuff is kicking my ass.)

Computer tech guys still say stuff like that?
Maybe it's just the ones who don't get out much....

Joanna, fire.
I love that cartoon.
I believe they meant it in a nice way. Admittedly, I was calling Alienware, which is a specialized retailer and probably doesn't get as many women calling in as places like Dell and HP.
But yeah, I said "BIOS", and they were impressed.
I'm now running FCP on this dinky little Sony display, and I can't stop laughing. It's like I just went back in time 10 years.

Maybe that's why they don't get out much.
CompUSA is going away? Damn.
Has anyone worked with Newegg?
If you mean ordered stuff from Newegg, then I've done that many times.
