Today I bought a 1 gig stick of A-Data ram for my 12" Powerbook G4. I gave up on the idea of upgrading my ram over a year ago when Canada Computers had them for about $180 and didn't even have them in stock.

All hope was lost until today when Ahmed told me that, miraculously, they seemed to have an abundance of them now and at rock bottom prices.

I've been getting increasingly frustrated as of yet with my laptop and have been yearning for a new one. Getting beachballs every few minutes every time I switch windows or tabs was getting really annoying. I've been lusting after the Macbook Pro but I've been waiting until they come out with the newer designs, hopefully by the end of summer or end of the year.

In any case, the extra 512 mb of ram(I had 768 before) has really juiced things up and I can happily say that I'm in no hurry for a new computer anymore.

Yes I'm a computer nerd.
