Viking C4564 64MB Non-Parity 60ns SIMM Kit for Compaq Products

Rating:
Summary: A lot faster, but at a price!
Review: Compaq is a really difficult place to get upgrade from. Tough to believe for the company that now has DIGITAL as part of it. After much research, I finally came across the Viking boards. The memory cards come in with nothing to guide you, so unless you feel comfortable opening your computer, yanking out 2 of your existing cards and installing 2 new ones, this is not for you. Between buying this extra RAM and a new hard drive I gave the old Presario maybe another year or so. If you are heavey multimedia user, this may not be enough to speed you up sufficiently. It is OK for music, web surfing etc., but too slow for the really neat stuff
