    Just wondering, I have a 60 gig usb thumb drive and would like to know
    if I would see any speed difference if I used it on my lap-top with windows ready boost? My laptop does have 4 gigs of memory so not sure if it would
    work.

    if u have 4GB of memory , there will be little or no effect... if u did have a laptop with 512MB or 1GB , then there would be a difference...
