- You can use all programs which come with the Pentium setup und all

- Not that I know. Pentiums come with 4MB, 8MB, 16MB and so on.
- If you want to run internet software and other soft that comes with the
- Pentium you need 4MB.

- My opinion still is:
- If you use your A1200 Surfer regulary you want to upgrade to at least 4MB
- RAM cause it will make the system more usable.
- If you don't use your Windows PC very often, you might find 4MB enough.
