When I bought the laptop sometime last January the computer memory installed on it was just 1 gig alongside a 160 gig hard disk drive. Used it a couple of times running multiple applications at the same time when I realized that it’d take forever for the pages to load in firefox and switching between application windows are taking quite a while too.
So after consulting a lot of people, friends and colleagues, I came to the conclusion that I need to add more memory to this notebook to improve its performance. I want it to run just a bit faster especially when running on multiple applications.
