    Does anyone know if the 129.99 base unit can take a memory upgrade? It would be fine for me apart from the memory being too little. Can't find anything anywhere which says how much memory it can take.
    Living on Earth can be expensive, but it does include an annual free trip around the Sun.

    They come with an OEM Factory restore disc if asked for (me thinks) basically no difference to the XP disk apart from maybe having SP2 loaded on aswell, They may have the F11 restore on boot option aswell.
