Hey everyone,

Here is my computer specs let me know if it is any good. ALSO im thinking about upgrading my RAM because as you will see i only got 1gb ram (2 512mb sticks i checked) so i need you smart guys and girls to tell me best brand and how much ram i should get, im thinking maybe 3gb depending on price. At the moment i have this brand which i don't know of but all i do know is the symbol is like a M with a circle around it. or as you could say like a halo ring. thanks guys and girls
