[dba-Tech] upgrading RAM

Installing new RAM is almost the easiest thing in the world... You line
the stick up with the slot, making sure that the kink in the stick
matches the bulge in the slot, and push until the two end tabs click
into place, and that's it.

Getting to the slot might not be so easy however, and be prepared for
dust!

========The Crucial scan gave me the information I need, but I will 
definitely check it to make sure. I've never even seen the inside, so
I'm 
not even sure I'll do it myself. We have a local shop that does great
work 
for a reasonable price. It's good to know what my options are.
