I quadrupled the memory in my eeePC........a bit of a waste of time as I'm running Linux and 512 is enough!.......but price of increased memory was so good that I just went for it anyway! I made a mistake when ordering and had to send one purchase back - [...] Highly recommended.

Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a ASUS Eee PC 701 System:

I took the EEE with Linux as a seriously portable, modestly priced electronic data record of my Archaeological Diving and I felt (from other PCs) that "half a gig" would probably give rather slow performance. It was "OK" but I ordered a 2Gb RAM at the same time. The difference is so clear when you re-boot the first time! I will now evaluate XP Pro on the machine.

The best thing I've bought so far for the Asus Eee PC. Mine came with just 512meg of ram and was fairly slow, but with this 2gig installed it really buzzes along now and is a really zippy little machine. A brilliant upgrade, highly recommended. [...]

Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a ASUS Eee PC 701 System:

I found that other operating-systems than the default Xandros on the Asus EEE need a little more memory. Without it the system tries swapping to flash which slows it down noticably. I really like the mainly cardboard packaging which can easily be recycled. The instructions on how to fit the memory really helped although I also looked up some instructions specifically for upgrading the ASUS Eee memory on-line. I now find that I can run a few apps at once with no swap being used at all. Using this extra memory and Mandriva linux, the Eee will even run the flightgear flight-simulator now at a useable speed. Note that some Unix kernels (including Mandriva) are only compiled to make use of 1Gb RAM - with Mandriva it's easy install their laptop-specific kernel and madwifi drivers using synaptic so you can make use of all the 2Gb on this card.
