What is the >'marginal' performance gain exactly??? The difference between 8 and 24 is huge, I have 20 in my 755cs, and it runs win95 great.

I'm drooling, that's going to be my next 'pad :) How is it for heat compared to older 'pads? _____________________________________________________________________ Piss! Shit! Cunt! Fuck! Cocksucker!
