Dell don't care if you add extra memory to the system.

Whether they have memory underneath or not depends on the system, not how new it is.

Some have it underneath, some have it under the keyboard, some have both.

Don't buy it from dell though as advised already, expensive.

Most of ya old software will have to be patched to work, same with games.
Depends if you think its worth the hassle or not.

Nothing I had under XP has needed to be patched to work in Vista. It was completely hassle free.


same. absolutely no problems with vista. i love it! could never go back to xp now. looks infinitely times better

I know with an Apple computer, certain parts are 'User-Servicable' and they don't affect your warranty if you change them. I'd expect another big manufacturer like Dell to follow suit.
