I didn't participate in Dump Go Daddy Day. Should I have? -- nm - Qale Dec 29, 19:09 9
- I've stuck with GoDaddy: they have some nice tools for domains and SSL Certs. There's some other ones, but ones I wouldn't associate with my work. -- (link) - budice Dec 29, 19:42

i have a computer memory question. is it better to have 2 4gb sticks from the same manufactuer - tRuMaN Dec 29, 17:03 6
- Manufacturer really isn't an issue. But mixing sticks means that the pair will run only as fast as the slowest DIMM. -- nm - Mop (null lbs) Dec 29, 17:06 2
  - hmm, see there is where i am - tRuMaN Dec 29, 17:11 1
    - The upside is you're talking about a negligible improvement in speed. - Mop Dec 29, 18:35
- Neither. It's better to have four 4GB sticks. :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 29, 17:04 2
  - i believe the max on this desktop is 8gb, but i could be wrong, the specs have already lied about the memory speed - tRuMaN Dec 29, 17:06 1
