Susan,

For normal day to day PC operations (like wordprocessing and
spreadsheets) , anything above 64Meg is overkill.

BUT, if you are involved in graphic design or multimedia, then there is
no such thing as too much RAM. <grin>

And as far as single stick vs multi stick, you would need a stop watch
that records millionths of a second to measure the performance
differences.
