   Well, that is more than 2GB, which I would definitely look for as a   
   minimum these days (especially if you do heavy file stuff, like DLing   
   and watching big video).  4GB gets you ahead of the curve.   
      
   But here is my biggest tip - stop worrying about your SWAP file and   
   get on updating the FAQ file!!!  It is 2008, there is an Ultimate BR   
   edition out there and a new FN and all that new info has to be   
   incorporated in the BR FAQ dude!!!  I'd do it myself, but given that I   
   can just grab some minutes to post here and struggle with anything   
   else BR, I wouldn't rely on me...
