I just bought 512mb ram off ebay and it'll probably arrive some time next week. I'm just wondering, how much of a difference is it gonna make? I have 512mb (2X256mb. bad call, i know!) and I'm replacing one of them with the 512mb that I'm gonna receive. Here're the apps I use most regularly:
- Firefox
- Mail
- iTunes
- Adium
- iCal
- TexShop
- Matlab
- X11
- Chicken of the VNC
- QuickSilver
- Maple 9
From time to time, Firefox freezes on me for like 5 seconds when I click on a link. I wonder if adding more ram would help.
By the way, send me a PM if you are interested in getting my 256ram (DDR 333 PC2700 SO-DIMM). I was really stupid and got it directly from Apple. It works on all Powerbook G4s.
