Lol... that is the whole point of ReadyBoost - - not buying memory modules but 'trying' to get performance boost by using a flash drive.

Recommend ReadyBoost for those 1Gb and below memory only...

E.g, using a 2Gb ReadyBoost flash drive >

512Mb RAM - - definitely improves performance upto 50%
1Gb - - will see improvement in load times of apps
2Gb - - barely, but you 'might' notice...
4Gb - - forget it.

You know how ReadyBoost is used in the 'real world' ? Meaning, actual gamers / PC users ?

>>

System RAM : 512Mb / 1Gb
OS : Vista Basic / Premium no Aero
Games : Not too extensive 3D games / applications
ReadyBoost : 1Gb / 2Gb flash drive

When enabled, user will experience boost in performance in terms of load times. Or enable ReadyBoost and leave flash drive. When starting up Vista, user experiences improved load times.

>>

How is ReadyBoost being perceived

- User thinks get ReadyBoost flash drive, no need to buy more RAM
- Significant improvement in performance for systems above 1Gb RAM
