i was playing on my friends alienware on UO today and i was doing ALOT better than i usually do on my

laggy shit laptop. i have come to conclusion that i really am good, its just the constant lag on my laptop is

holding me back from constantly getting good scores. SOOO.......hopefully in the next couple of months i'm

going to save up and get more RAM so it runs perfect!

(sorry if this is useless information that you could care less about smile.gif )

Fearing you'll say you're joking and I get egg on my face once more...
RAM is random access memory... You have several levels of memory the computer uses to make things tick... each one better than the other.... The more RAM you have, the less likely the computer resorts to using the slower hard drive 'page file' memory which is busy using resources for other computer functions[ but the motherboard should be modern enough to support very high amounts of installed ram]. The graphics card[and its personal memory] is either above or below the ram memory in importance depending upon how powerful either type is.

Here's geeky thread link on types/amount of ram to use> good chuckles at the end.
