    Hello, I have a Acer As 5021 and want to upgrade the RAM on it since it's only 512 mb.
    Well I have some questionens on it:

    - Im planing to buy a new 1gb memory and change it against one of the 256mb RAM's i have now. Can I have two of different size's?

    - What memory do I need?, I found a 1GB DDR 333 PC2700 184-pin Samsung memory in a local store can I use that?

    Well that was it I thing.

    /Cheers Anton :)

    What you'll need is a 200-Pin memory stick, not the 184. And yes, you can have 2 different sizes. :D
