QuestionRAMIt says that the RAM is expandable to 2GB. I don't see any options on the Toshiba Direct website. When is the card going to be avaibable ?
- Answer Yes, it is easy to expand. You can get a 2 meg card from Best Buy or from Toshiba. Disconnect any power leads. Turn the unit over. Remove the battery. Remove the smalll cover that is mostly vent slots just above the "windows sticker". It has one screw. Lift the end the screw is in and pull up and out. There is a 1 gig card in there, remove it and insert the 2 gig card. Replace the cover, put the battery back in, turn it over and power it up.

Questionconflicting answers to the question of expanding memory. What is the correct answer?
- Answer The specs say that it is expandable to 2 Gigs. I would choose to believe the specs on the box and the guy that walks you through the expansion than the guy that is just upset with no specifics. I would think he is upset, and you may be too, because perhaps there is one slot, and you will need to take out your 1 gig and purchase and install a 2 gig chip. Kind of a waste, and could be somewhat frustrating, but the most plausible reason for conflicting info. alternatively, some rookie at the store just gave him bad info. Good luck, Dave
