More memory, mas happy!

March 11, 2008

OK, I adapted this post’s title from a multivitamins’ ad slogan “more energy, mas happy!” which means having more physical stamina gets you in high spirits. My laptop is happy now, having been fed with more RAM. Now it’s got 2.5GB of memory which is a far cry from the previous 1GB causing some of the applications to load slowly. Of course, the owner is much happier with the increased speed. Just look at the CPU meter screenshots before and after – it’s definitely great to work with just about 60% of RAM being used up compared to the previous 89% usage.
