Unfortunately my manager thought a machine with more RAM would be hard to
sell after I've finished my stint with it (I work in conjunction with a
Uni retail outlet and our equipment gets rotated as shop stock, so I get
to play with a few of the more recent toys :) - I originally asked for a
16MB upgrade, but they are expensive.
I get to use a desktop PC with 32MB RAM, so I cannot complain too much :)
