I up'ed the memory from 125 megs to 256megs by adding some memory from
a computer I am throwing out. Surprising to me, it really peps the
machine up.

So, its worth the $44 bucks or whatever they are charging at your local
CompuUSA. I think they charge more than that if you buy it preconfiged
with additional memory.

Here is the output of free. So, it looks like the extra memory is
being used. (32 megs is used for video memoryh.)
