>>>>>I used to listen to Internet radio (XM) and watch tv news on this computer (Windows 7 64-bit 4 GB). But I was not doing any kind of development on this PC. Now I moved all my development to this PC (mostly VFP 9). Do you think that using Internet radio or tv on this PC will slow down the VFP 9 or could cause some adverse effects? TIA.

>>>I was thinking the same. When I bought this PC (about 3 years ago) I thought 4 GB would be huge. But now I hear that for 64-bit 8 GB would work much better. I will call DELL to see what it would take ($$) to upgrade. Thank you.
