Any hardware upgrades I should make this holoday???
The only thing you should do if yoy have Vista 64 is get another 2 gb of ram and maybe another hardrive for more space.Any hardware upgrades I should make this holoday???

Yea get 2 more gigs if you have 64 bit vista.
Could you guys tell me if this would work? If I have 2 gigs of this memory and i want to add 4 gigs. Can I buy 2 x 2 gig sticks of the same memory (same speed same everything except gb) and add that to my current 2x 1gb memory?

Well it depends on your mobo. It probably does have it, but you need another 2 slots for ram.

This is the RAM i currently have: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227246
If I install this ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227288 It will work correct right?

Yes, but do you have 64 bit vista?
If your motherboard has 4 slots for memory then just buy your old ram again all of it will be in dual channel.

yeah thats what I am planning on doing. The difference in memory (gb's) doesnt matter as long as everything else is the same right?
