Would increasing your ram help? 128mb is not very much imo

The ream is definately killing you here.

Ram is cheap and solves many problems.

I don't see why people don't max out their computers with ram when they get them.

That's what I did.  1 Gig o' Ram baby.  Oh yeah.

You're welcome boomer. 

a lot of people find more fun in starcraft than in Warcraft III, Which I can see.  See in starcraft the first person to get strong  air wins!  In warcraft you have to try a little harder, thus meaning more strategy which alot of gamers don't enjoy...they like mindless slaying

go to www.ramseeker.com or www.pricewatch.com and get yourself some more ram!

or go here : 512 MB for $89 or 256MB for $30.90

I remember when 128MB of PC133 was like $150, then RAM prices hit a huge low, and they since went up, and now have fallen back down.

And I remember paying $189 for a nice stick of 32MB.

Comon...who in here paid $300 for a 500MB hard drive?

i remember paying $125 a stick for 4 meg 80ns simms!

500 mb drive? try $1k!

$400 for a 12" monitor!

[/crotchety old man]

of course, i still have that 12" monitor, and it still has a beautiful picture; Apple don't build them like that anymore....

yeah things are changing, Im only 16 nbut I still started with an Apple II, green screen and all, those floppies the size of your head, well a 6 eyar old's, and a printer as loud and slow as an elephant(now I have a laser speed printer, that when set to lowest settings can print pictures almost pefectly).  And then a macintosh,those old bigones that seem to resemble iMacs with a ploppy, you know what I mean.  I've been browsing through my old MacAddict cd's(1-12)  And I noticed on one of em it syas you have to hav 16 mb of actual ram, not virtual.  HAH 16 MB, HAH!  Oh and lately prices dropping even faste for mac users (finally),  My dad paid about same for my 17" superdrive, extra ram, iMac that cam with a printer than for my old iMac DV, that only came wityh some ram.  Least to say, we are pleased, perturbed.   Can't iomagine what it's liek for you old geezers  My dad alwasy tells me he never got to use a real calulater.  I've been using my TI-83 plus graphing calc since 6th grade, though I knwo some ppl who still just use scientific, I don't think I would ever live without my little 83  .  My mo found it at $80 (usually it's $99) and my dad said he paid 150 for some simple/big calculator.  Just imagine, we may finally have holograms soon.  What will Warcraft V or starcraft IV be like then?

ha! "real" calculator? can't get much more real than the HP-41 series. that's the first calculator i ever used (a 41C, to be specific), and we still have it, and it still works. i've owned TI-30's, 31's, 30SLR's, 30SLR+'s, 68's, 81's, 83's and i even had a 92 for a while. the TI calculators are nice, but you can't beat old reliable.... reverse-polish notation takes a while to get used to, however....
