[CUBE] refurbished cube (overstock.com)

[john breedlove]

When I first got my cube it had 64mb ram.   It stayed that way for a 
long time.  I got a 256 in there and it was like a whole new machine.  
I was recently given some leftover ram from my uncle's upgrades- 512mb 
and 256mb.  I have a gig now and it is really not that much different 
for most things I do.  I can attest to the fact that it is a wonderful 
feeling when I notice a performance boost.

Thubten,
When is 1.5 not enough?
