When I got the computer brand new it had 128MB of ram, I installed 256 more. I have been looking for another 256MG stick to max it out at 512MB.

I just run Firefox on its own, Office2003 on its own and sometimes when I run Firefox. I run two or three graphics programs, usually back to back and not at the same time.

I have been looking for more RAM like I said, but I live in a small town and the stores here refuse to order older hardware. I rarely go out of town cause of the expense and the stores I have talked with out of town also refuse to order older hardware and the one that will will not mail it to me even if I paid extra for it. Also, they will not keep it for me to pick up unless it is the day after they get it. Otherwise they send it back, get a refund and keep it. I have dealt with them once before, I ordered a new motherboard, they got it, on a Saturday, they were Closed Sunday, and they returned it on Monday, and then kept me money and called it a restocking fee, and a return mail fee.
