ul20a-a1 vs eee 1201n (ion) For those of you who have added 2GB of memory to the 20A, what product did you buy, how much did it cost, and was the installation easy?

I went with the UL20A largely because I think for everyday use having that SU7300 will make it feel faster. For the games I play (mostly older RTS games), the integrated graphics should be fine - and I'll just head to my desktop computer if I need more power than that. My concern is that that 330 and the ION will just kill the battery life, and then I'm tethered to a power outlet - so might as well just use my desktop. And I think I'd get annoyed with waiting on that Atom processor to keep up - whereas the UL20A seems to have decent processing power and a nice, portable form factor - seems like the perfect blend.

I have finally been able to install the 2GB RAM with my ASUS 1000HE turning on but I have the same problem with the system not showing the added RAM.Nothing happens when I pressF2 as you did.Can someone please advise me? I'd really be grateful.

I researched this a bit before I bought my N120 and got three decent answers. 1. Go with the default (evenly split) approx 80/80 (if its the default there may be a good reason, I just have not found out what it was). 2. Go with just a C Drive (100% C Drive), like most computers are set up. and 3. Go with 40GB for C and the rest with D (with this set-up, all programs load on the C and all Docs on D, that way if you ever need to reload the OS you do not have to touch your files).

I just bought the ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005PEB-RRE (the brownish red one) and decided to upgrade the ram to 2GB. Order the Crucial CT25664AC800 based on recommendations by other ASUS owners on Amazon. It works!!! The whole process takes less than 10 minutes. I actually spend most of the time figuring how to open the cover. The BIOS setting even auto-detect. I am very happy with both products.

Hello,I just finished buying an ASUS 1000HE (literally within the past hour or so), but while I wait for it to get shipped, I was wondering if I should also opt for the memory upgrade. Seems, cheap and effortless to install, I'm just curious, have you noticed a significant difference in performance?Thanks.

I just read on Google,Asus saying that upgrading to2GB will Not void the warranty.I have the 2GB module will install,not really sure I need it.Oh well,you can never be too rich,thin or have enough memory.Follow up;Installed 2MB memory,one caveat,You must enter the BIOS to get it to recognize the 2MB,if you don't it will see your 2MB as 1 MB

It comes with 2GB why did you upgrade all the way to 4GB, did it add that much more speed? and how much extra of a cost? Are you still happy with it?Thanks

Thanks for the info in re do-it-yourself upgrading to 2GB. I have a HP 210-1040 NR and would like to try an upgrade but would need at least basic instructions before I opened up my computer. Are such available, as far as you know? Thanks.

I believe the difference is the internal storage. I bought the *B1 for my son which has 32gb and the *A1 has 16gb, I believe.

Based on the Apple Web site I took the memory module numbers and typed them into Amazon. Same number, speed etc for way way less than what Apple would charge. Install was easy and I have had absolutely no problem with it.

I used the geekylives link to pop in the new RAM, but the system still says 1 GB. I looked at the device drivers to see if there was a way to tell the computer to look for the extra memory, but I still haven't gotten it to recognize the extra ram, although the computer is working fine.

Thanks for the response...the first 2GB i received from Amazon actually seemed to slow DOWN my netbook...esp noticeable after i replaced it with the 1GB to see if the hanging shutdown would go away (which it did)...so my question to you is...do you notice ANY enhanced performance from the 800 mHz 2GB install?

It is very easy to upgrade ram. I just did it and did not even look at a guide. Note that there is only one SO_DIMM slot, so you cannot buy a 1 gb stick and add on. I swapped out the 1 gb stick mine came with, with onee of two 2 gb sticks on my thinkpad. better value all round. also, i just read online that asus changed their policy of treating ram upgrade as voiding warranty. not sure though.

I agree with NY. The speakers on the NC10 SE are perfectly acceptable given that this is an netbook costing a just $469. My only meaningful complaint about the NC10SE is that 2MB of RAM is not standard. I had to fiddle around for quite a while last night trying to get the memory card seeded in just right.

I can't actually answer your question (yet, going to install soon) however since the upgrade to 2gb (via two 1gb chips) is only around $30 here on amazon it seems silly not to upgrade.. also waiting on my memory so I'll post back with my experiences :)
