The DDR400 memory modules for computers were first available on the public market in 2002. It was the largest volume of memory available in one place at the time is was released.
The First Word in Memory Is Me was created in 1985.

Most modern processors are 64 bit, so they're capable of addressing ridiculously large amounts of memory if the OS is also 64-bit ... the practical limits are really "what sizes of memory modules are commercially available", "how many memory modules will physically fit into the computer", and "how much can you afford". Theoretically with 64 bits it's possible to address up to 16 exabytes of memory. This would be over a billion 16 GB DIMM modules. So you don't need to worry about hitting the limit any time soon. If the OS is only 32 bit ... for desktop machines, Windows XP was the first version of Windows for which 64 bit was really an option, and Vista was the first version where it was at all common ... then the maximum memory size is just 4 GB (and in practice the actual usable memory will probably be less, because the upper part of the memory address space is usually used for other purposes).
Most motherboards today come with between 2 and 8 sockets for the insertion of memory. These are usually either SIMMs (single inline memory modules) or DIMMs (dual inline memory modules). These can come in different sizes. The motherboard usually labels these sockets "SIMM0" through "SIMM7" or "DIMM1" through "DIMM3", etc. The sockets are almost always filled starting with the lowest numbered socket first. Most Pentium class or higher motherboards require SIMMs to be inserted in pairs, but DIMMs may be inserted individually.
Command modules did not land on the moon. The Lunar Exploration Modules (LEM) did.

Memory is stressed on the first syllable: "MEM-ory."

Depends on the notebook motherboard..I just upgraded my note book from 512MB RAM (2X256 PC2100 DDR-266Mhz 200 pin SODIMM) to 1GB (2X512MB PC2700 DDR-333Mhz 200 pin SODIMM), would not accept 1GB modules. I tried the Brand supplier (HP) and they were going to charge me a fortune for the PC2100 modules, so I got my local computer shop to get generic memory for me from their suppliers. When I tried the first memory modules of 512MB my notebook did not boot, so tried another brand (generic as well) and you little beauty it loaded. Therefore, different brands of memory modules may not work, mainly due to the voltage of the chip. So I saved big bucks by going local. My advice, seach the internet for your model and product ID and the type of RAM used. Hope this helps Kevin from Australia
Jonas' first memory in "The Giver" is of sliding down a snowy hill on a sled. This memory brings him joy and excitement, as he experiences feelings of freedom and exhilaration for the first time.
This type of laptop is a Compaq Presario series. The series comes stock with 512 mb of RAM. The memory bank has two slots for memory modules. The factory memory module takes up one slot and is removable for upgrading. This series of laptops can hold a maximum of 2 Gigabytes of RAM. These laptops use SODIMM laptop memory chips, and it does support dual channel functionality. Most memory manufacturers have these models listed as supporting pc4200 RAM modules; however it is very likely that pc5300 modules also work without issues in these models - many RAM manufacturers now sell this speed of RAM for these machines, and claim it has been tested as compatible. I suggest contacting either Compaq/HP, or the memory manufacturer to verify which speed (pc4200/pc5300) you need before the install if at all possible. In most cases, this shouldn't be an issue so long as both the modules you install are the same speed; but check first indeedy! The cheapest, and most effective way to upgrade the memory in these laptops is to purchase (2x) 1 Gigabyte memory modules. Remove the 512 mb module which comes with the machine, and replace the new modules into both slots to acheive the maximum allowance of 2 Gigabytes usable RAM. Keep in mind that the Operating System may not register the full 2 Gigabytes of RAM when you view the system specifications; however it will use as much of the 2 Gigabytes of RAM as possible during normal operation. This is common with newer OS/RAM combinations and should not be seen as a malfuction.
