I have 1 gig of ram for my computer. for my video editing chores, I have a video hardware encoder. they cost anywhere from a grand or 2, but you can get them on ebay for anywhere from $20.00 to $250.00. it won't use your computer as a resource and you'll get better picture quality

It really depends on what you will be running, I have 1 gig and it's more than enough for me. (At least for now ).

Also it would depend on the OS, I recently read an article about Longhorn. They reccomend minimum 2gig because of all the power-hungry features.

Ps: The first computer i had didn't have any Memory at all, The good old Tandy TRS-80.

i didnt read any of the postes above, cause ima slow reader and dont have the time.

but for whoever asked the question....

the amount of ram you put in your computer realy only depends on your budget.

example - on my budget, id prolly get 1gb max.
- if i had a budget like some of these ppl with A64 san diego's and 6800gt's, id prolly just get 4gigs of ram, or however much i could fit on the motherboard.
