>>>Thanks in advance.

>>You may have tough time finding a new laptop with just 2GB of RAM. Most have at least 4 MB (I think).

>There are promotions on Best Buy for 2GB of memory. He wants to buy one and I have hard time convincing him that 2GB is not enough. 4GB costs ~150$ more.

The 2GB may be promoted to a rank of colonel for what I care, but 150$ is ridiculous. I've upgraded all our laptops here to 4GB (only because they won't take more) at about 2900 RSD (which translates to, roughly, $32) per 4GB and I just gave the old memories to the guy in the shop to treat the next poor student who comes along.
