Slowness

My apologies for the ongoing slowness of phlegmatic. The entire story goes something like this:

• Hard drive is almost full. Buy new hard drive.
• Install new hard drive, turn computer on, power supply smolders and dies. Buy new power supply.
• Install new power supply, turn computer on, RAM smolders and dies.

At this point phlegmatic is running on 64 megs of ram, which is silly. The machine is caching constantly, so everything is dead slow. I have ordered new ram, so as long as something else doesn't smolder and die when I install it, everything should be back to normal in a few days.

Fixed! And nothing else broke when installing the new RAM. Thank you, budget used ebay memory!-p

... and thank you, Zazu, for hopping on the keyboard right as I was clicking on 'Post Reply', and adding a couple extra garbage characters onto my post.
