Memory is your computer's workspace. It provides your
desktop PC with fast, temporary storage to hold data while
you work with it. The more memory a computer has, the
larger the workspace. Conventional wisdom holds that you
should buy as much memory as you can afford -- up to the
maximum memory your system will support. Memory is inexpensive
these days, and given that it does improve your PC's overall
capabilities, this conventional wisdom still holds true.
Memory is measured in Megabytes (MB) and Gigabytes (GB).
For standard business applications, 512MB of memory is
a good start. For more robust applications, consider up
to 1 GB of memory. You can also add memory to your system
over time, so be sure that you choose a computer that
supports up to 1 or 2 GB of memory so even if you start
with 512MB initially, you can extend your system later
as your needs require.
