It's been over 3 years since the Ferrari 4000 came out and a lot of us on this forum purchased it. I learned a lot from the discussions we all had about our machines back in the good old days when they were new! :-) Since many people...

Unless there's something I haven't heard about recently, Acer has never given us a new bios that would support faster RAM. There were numerous discussion on this topic in the forum back about a year and a half ago. I upgraded my 4005...
