    The Vostro 1700 is capable of handling 4gb(2x2gb ddr2-667 memory)
    You shouldn't have any problems ;)

    Just purchase memory which has a lifetime warranty and you will be good.
    You can pick up a 4gb kit from newegg for like $75.
    I recommend picking them up before this coming weekend, cause as of June 1st, Newegg is going to start charging sales tax, and in new york state, its like 10%, so pick it up before this act goes in place.
