Looks pretty sweet, although I don't know what Software,Windows XP- Plus-Digital Media Edition exactly is.

Pretty smokin! If you have the money, bump that SOB up to a GIG of memory, you will totally tell a difference.

I really wish I knew what all that stuff meant.

So, I'm going to go with Mike and Ryan and say "nice!"

Question. The computer has 512MB of 333mhz SDRAM...and I have a stick of DDR333MB RAM. Would this fit into my notebook?

 

[Alan]

Anyone? Anyone?

 

[Chaz]

No it won't

The type in your desktop is a different form.

Notebooks take 144 pin SODIMM



BTW
looks pretty nice.

The refurbished Dells are a good deal IMO. I am using one right now. It looked just like a new one when I got it except for the red refurbished sticker on the bottom.

Laptop memory and workstation memory are different. That DDR Ram you have is most likely for a desktop, laptops use DIMM. If you have ever seen Laptop memory before it is about the same length as your pinky finger and much more expensive

Other than it is Dell.

Thanks guys!
