there's always a silver lining...

i was pretty bummed out that after running the vulture gauntlet, weaving through horrendously packed spaces and spending $60 of my hard-earned paycheque to get 2 1gig sticks of ram, my compaq could only support the newer ddr2 667 ram sticks that i was eyeing but decided to avoid in order to play it safe.

fortunately, i've found a willing taker for the poor, homeless 533s in the form of this old gal who's been clamouring for a ram fix.

yep, my coming-to-two-years-old toshi now has more ram than my new compaq. at least till tomorrow anyway.
