    I just grabbed one of the Acer AS5570-2067's off the Best Buy outlet on the auction site. I wanted an inexpensive laptop for traveling, doing a little work at coffee shops etc.... Anyway, I had a couple of quick questions.

    Is this the memory that I need to get if I want to upgrade to 2 Gb's? http://www.buy.com/prod/kingston-2g...m-ddr2-laptop-memory/q/loc/101/204884017.html

    Also, have all the bugs been worked out with switching over Vista to XP? I saw the drivers on the Acer website.
