Today, I was not sick, so I got to go to school. Oh goody, what fun I had. I got to fix my geometry teacher's computer. Well, fix in the sense that I pointed out that his computer clock was wrong, and then he asked me to take off Norton Anti Virus from the system. That was easy, way to easy. Really. If I didn't know he was a sports coach and health teacher as well, I would have thought him behind in the times, but coaches rarly know how to use a computer beyond a slightly sheltered pre-teen. Aka, install programs, run programs, write stuff, turning the system on, and turning it off.

I was a sheltered pre-teen in my pre-teen years, so I should know.

Anyway, my PC Support teacher started asking what kind of RAM I have. I'm not supprised she asked, seeing as I always complain about it in class. I said I don't know. I find that this computer can hold a gig of RAM, but to hold that much, I need 2 512MB sticks. You know, 512MB in it self would be a good improvement for this piece of junk. I can't help but think some more RAM is right around the corner.

And speaking of RAM, a friend recomended downloading FreeRAM XP Pro. So I did. While I had low RAM to begin with, it's still good to see something clear it up every now and then, and good to see how much I have to spend. Currently, I have… let it go through it's thing… 64MBs of RAM to spend, with InternetExporer running, Game Maker, and AIM. I had only 21MBs before it ran through it's thing. Once I get more RAM, I should start seeing a bigger difference.

In Game Maker news, I think I might work on a Pet game for the desk top (It's not like it's been done before, riiiiiiiiight?). Thats about it for today. Lets see how much my RAM jumps after I submit this, huh?

It went down to 47MBs.
