Upgrading My Computer
I finally decided it was time to upgrade my computer's RAM since for I only have 256mb, and also because Simcity 4 runs rather slow as I approach 1,000,000 people.
Anyway, I cracked open the computer last night to take a look, and then braved the ice and snow to get to CompUSA. However, the technicians at CompUSA advised that I would need to purchase my RAM directly from Dell. Dell computers it seems, has designed their hardware only with hardware from-- yep, Dell.
So not only will I have to pay a premium markup for the new parts, but I'll also have to wait a few days. Since I wasn't able to impulsively install the RAM, I may not upgrade at all and just wait a few months to get a new computer. Of course, when I do get a new computer, it won't be a Dell.
