It works very well.
You can purchase more ram at any best buy, circuit city, comp USA, newegg.com, tiger direct.com or probably any small mom and pop like computer repair/sales shop. One sure fire way to find out what kind of ram you need is to go to crucial.com and click on the scan my system button, then after wards it tells you what kind your system takes and it gives you the option to buy the ram that you need. And the price for ram primarily depends on how much you need. For example 256MB of ram might cost you $25.00, while 1GB of ram would probably cost you $89-99.
First you need to find what kind of RAM it takes, how many pins and the speed.
You probably have 168 pin DDR, which runs about $60 for 1gb on Newegg.com, which is a very reputable online retailer.
