Hi Peter,

I added 2 1GB Crucial modules to the original 512, so I have 2.5GB 
installed.  I have two more 1GB modules on order, due here Monday.  Those 
are the largest that can be installed in this machine.  I suspect things 
will get better when I replace the 512 module with the 2 new ones.

I have also resized the Virtual Memory, and that has helped.

Thanks for the interest.
