I was reading through the form and I stumbled apon a thread that talked about RAM and MrMacman suggested this Utility

http://www.hillmanminx.net/dinmm/index.html

it checks the amount of ram that you should buy to run your computer efficiantly

anyways I would have never found this app if he hadnt posted it (thanks btw) and it is a very good and simple tool

Post any Other cool apps / utilities might be helpful for others

Labels X 1.1.1

Ah, someone used the give credit where credit is due philosophy. Thanks, and I give all credit to the dev.
all mac dev. rule! :D

not many apps I use
 
cocktail, of course. then a couple of haxies from unsanity and a whole bunch of random programs, i find that different versions do different things so i switch from time to time.
 
sweet thanks for the link:D

do games fun well through this?? I would concider building a gameing box if it does.....
 
I wouldn't suggest using RDC for games!! Or even video or audio. Because of the limited bandwidth connecting you to the PC, it wouldn't look okr sound too good :)

It's perfectly usable for some things though - I use it for kazaa, file organising, burning (my DVD burner is installed in my PC) and so on.

If yo'ure building a gaming box, use the gaming box for gaming :D
 
yea, I believe you can run games, But you would need a 802.11g Card, a 802.11g router, and a 802.11g card for your mac = 54mgs/sec transfering rate.
(11mgs/sec is just not enough it feels almost like VPC, but a tad faster. 11mgs/sec is standard 802.11a
