Partly retroactive hiatus

So, um, yeah... As folks might have noticed, I have all but dropped from the face of the earth for the past few days. ^^;;;;; This is because my fail!machine decided to go batty on me again, and most of my free time at home has been dedicated to upgrading anti-malware applications and running scans that keep bogging down my computer to a grinding halt. =P I THINK I have it mostly taken care of, except that I'm on my way to work now and can't do any tagging until I get home later tonight at the earliest.

So, to folks I'm back-threading with vK, my deepest apologies, but I will try to get back to it ASAP. And also, please let me know if I'm apologizing too much here... I never know for sure when it's required or when it's inappropriate. ^^;;;;

What kind of RAM does your computer take?

Not sure what type specifically (I'll have to check with the person who built it), but according to System Properties, it currently has 130,544k of RAM installed. And according to Device Manager, the processor is an Intel 82443BX Pentium(r) II. *Is very, very unsavvy when it comes to hardware specs* ^^;;;;

I'll check the type and see if I have any lying around! It's a long shot but sometimes we have extra RAM because of situations where there'll only be one RAM slot left and we have a chip with more to replace it. It's happened to me but I know we use different ones, so I'll check the electronics drawer since my parents just upgraded. XD

Like I said, though, don't get your hopes up. RAM is easy to install, but (reasonably so) it can be scary to open up a computer if you've never done it before. Maybe you have a slightly saavy friend?
