Yep, just wish my satellite wasn't so slow sometimes.

Re: Buying A New Computer
The good news with computers is that pace one needs to upgrade has slowed down quite a bit. The amount of RAM that one needs has been doubling for over a decade and a half but during the last few years it has slowed dramatically. 4GB was good three years ago and it is still good today -for most applications.
Of course my desktop has 32GB on it which will probably last me through the next 10 years. My wife will see to it (and remind me anytime I say I need to upgrade)!

Don't tell my husband that! My argument to him was that most of the deals I saw were $500 for 4 and 6GB, so why not pay $200 more for 16GB?!!!!

Well, it may be possible to find the 16GB sticks on sale cheaper and better qualities.
RAM is often one area where PC makers go for the econo stuff

What do you mean in the bold. I thought the computer was already equipped with the 16GB memory. What to you mean by sticks on sale? Why would I need them?

Yes it is, but as you said for $200 more
You can buy a PC with 4 gigs and add more for less than the 200 extra and perhaps better RAM
