I just received a 2gb RAM module I ordered and am going to install it on the weekend. It will increase my ram from 512mb to 2.5 gb. How much RAM do you have? Is it sufficient? With RAM as cheap as it is, will you upgrade soon?

I have 1gb, but with only 883 mb available because of my integrated card. I barely use 1/3 of it with Kubuntu hardy. It would be nice to have 2gb though.

And with Ubuntu, I never use as much as half (except when i run googleearth).

2Gb ... which is plenty for day to day activities (web, email, etc) but is not nearly enough for the large photo editing I do... I am always chewing into my 5GB of swap....'been meaning to buy at least another 2GB
1GB (technically 940MB because of my integrated graphics card) I can easily use up to 2/3 of it. I have a tendency to really max out things, and use some heavy programs.
So my next computer I will get for college will have 2GB. I am pretty sure that will be perfect for me, I don't think I could get usage out of 4GB...but I could try! =)
How cheap is RAM? I'm thinking about upgrading my home desktop from 1 GB to 2 GB.
