Laptops are hard to upgrade aswel, its very fiddly.
windows xp is designed to work on a 512 mb Ram system. WHich means that running it on 40 will be so slow that it will take forever to load up. Windows xp will NOT run efficiently on a 90 mb ram system either.
False information = confusion.
I hate to say this but that's wrong too
