>I don't know about plunking down $57 on this old machine. Does anyone think going from 64 to 192 MB will make a difference on a P2-266 running Win 98?
it depends...
64mb is enough to run simple apps like IE, email, winamp,etc. ...and performance-wise win98 can run pretty good with just 64mb. however, you open several programs at once...96mb is about the sweet spot.
anything >96 (not counting graphics programs like photoshop which will use all the memory you can give it) is allocated for primarily for the windows file cache.
