    Here are the specs for the inspirion 1705:

    Intel® Core™ Duo Processor T2500 (2GHz/667MHz FSB)
    Genuine Windows® XP Professional
    17 inch UltraSharp™ Wide Screen UXGA Display with TrueLife™
    2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz
    256MB NVIDIA® GeForce™ Go 7900 GS
    60GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive
    Integrated 10/100 Network Card and Modem
    FREE!8x CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) with double-layer DVD+R write capability
    Intel PRO/Wireless 3945 802.11a/g Mini Card (54Mbps)

    How much should a 1 GB stick of ddr2 667 ram cost? I'm looking to chop price so I don't really care about brand name.

    And just to boost my confidence, it is EASY to install ram right? open up the little bay door on the bottom and pop it in?
