Based on what you are running the 16MB upgrade is fine.
With 95 anything above 8MB is significant but the performance increase above
20MB are much smaller.
You can do much better than $400 for a 1.4 Gig.

Keep your caddy or I can sell you a one for $35.
The HDD should be $235 or less.

Subject: Upgrading Thinkpad 750C
I have a Thnkpad 750C - 486-33SLC; 10.4 active matrix; 8 MB RAM (4 onboard and 4 MB IC-DRAM card); 170 meg HD; PCMCIA fax/mod card.
I am running WIndows 95 on the above which, as you can imagine, is very slow. I cannot upgrade the processor. I run primarily WordPerfect 7 and a time and billing package so will do some swapping. My upgrade options are as follows:
1. 16 MB IC DRAM for $125
2. 32 MB IC DRAM for $235
4. 1.4 GIG HD for $400
Does anyone have any idea what type of performance gains I could expect and if the difference in performance gains is worth the extra cost of the 32 MB card? Any thoughts on whether the total cost of the upgrade (either $525 or $635) is worth the money?
Thanks for the advice.
