There is never a good time to buy a new computer.

An easy way to see what type of Ram/Memory you need is to use the Crucial Memory Advisor™ Tool or this Memory Chooser from PNY.

You don't necessarily have to buy the memory from either of these companies. You could just go there and check on the type/style of memory you need.

Try downloading and using CPU-Z, it's a small program that can detect most common memory types inside a computer (laptop or not).

At best it will tell you all the information of the type of memory you have in your laptop (and if all of your slots are full) including the manufacturer's name etc.

At worst, you will only know the type of the memory your computer uses (DDR2 or not and stuff like that).

Wherever I Go From Here - Original Song

A friend of ours recently passed away much too young. After attending the funeral, I wrote this song. It's written from the perspective of his girlfriend. Lyrics are below. Wherever I Go From Here Everybody keeps on talking In quotations and clichés Relatives and lifelong friends They just dont know what to say I know that good intentions Are what everybody has But any words that they say to me Can't help to bring you back Wherever I go from here I know that you'll be there I'll carry your memory Every moment, everywhere Can someone help me understand Can someone tell me why This wasn't part of the plan It's too soon to say goodbye You were only with me for an instant A couple years, a couple days You walked in and you walked out I'll always miss your smiling face Wherever I go from here I know that you'll be there I'll carry your memory Every moment, everywhere I wasnt ready for this moment You were way too young to leave It's just a breath and a heartbeat That kept you here with me Now the Autumn leaves are falling down The days are short, the nights are cold But you visit me in dreams sometimes Then I'm not so all alone Wherever I go from here I know that you'll be there I'll carry your memory Every moment, everywhere Mark...you will be missed.

A Cursive Memory- Perfect Company (VIDEO)

A Cursive Memory- Perfect Company (VIDEO) This is A Cursive Memory's video, not mine. They did an AWESOME job! LYRICS: I've been to just about a million places, Sunny skies everywhere and in between, But just to know I'm right here with you, It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Oh my God you're such a beautiful girl, With such a wonderful way in such a beautiful place, The sun is shining and it warms my face, What a wonderful day I just hope it can stay. I just want to tell you I love you (I love you), and everything is gonna be okay someday soon. I've been to just about a million places, With placid seas and perfect scenery, But just to know you're right here with me, Well you make the perfect company. Oh my God its true, If time stood still I'd wait with you, If time stood still and still it stood I'd be with you. I just want to tell you I love you (I love you), and everything is gonna be okay someday soon. Lovely love, we're almost in it. We'll laugh and love in this world. I just want to tell you I love you (I love you), and everything is gonna be okay someday soon.
