After posting this same question on Sun. I realized it has been answered many times. Go to>Crucial.com.Tthis site

 will tell you everything you need to know. I have not checked prices so I cannot compare store bought versus online.

That would depend on where you live.

Safe surfing.

Hi there,

 

the following link should give you an idea as to how much memory you can add

 

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=bph03886&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&...

 

also, your model is only capable of handling 4GB for it's max capacities.

Jim-it would be a good idea to post the results of the info given you. Just a correction on Beningo's reply. Although 32bit processors have only the ability to use up to 4GB  of ram; this does not apply for you due to your processor being 64bit.. A good point to remember for anyone upgrading memory.
