    I do not think that is using a 1GB I-RAM, that text on the site reads "GigaByte I-RAM", but GigaByte is the name of the company that makes the I-RAM board.    FWIW - last I knew, the I-RAM board only supported 4GB of storage...    There were a few articles posted on tech sites (like Anandtech, etc.) when this thing first came out.    Peace! -=- James


    If you think it costs a lot to do it right, just wait until you find out how much it costs to do it wrong!

      Yes, It has 4 DDR1 dimm slots and supports up to a 1GB unbuffered dimm per slot. John

          Nearly instantaneous. I mean it probably took 1 second[update]Alright 4 seconds[/update] from when the WinXP boot screen appeared. (Which is really all that counts. Everything before that is hardware initialization and BIOS bootup.

                              Cool. It could BSOD, reboot, submit the error report and install the update before you've even noticed that your Word document had disapeared.

                                It is already hard enough to hit the timely F2 or F8 keys when your computer starts - now we'll need half a dozen reboots before we'll hit it!
