No, I've never worked for a company that can afford to just upgrade 
hardware for no reason other than that a certain number of days have 
passed. I would have thought most companies only spend money upgrading 
something if it actually needs upgrading. (But then, I've only worked 
for one company, so what do I know?)

Damn. I had no idea it had got this cheap!

I guess because my motherboard won't handle more than 4GB, I hadn't 
bothered looking at the price. Or maybe it's the fact that I haven't 
found anything yet that requires more than 2GB of RAM, let alone 4GB...
