Hi,
You do go buy RAM sticks from some sort of an office supply store. The size of the stick depends on the amount of RAM you have right now and the system type. I suggest looking in the laptop's user manual for info on the type of stick and the size of it.
To take apart your laptop:
Shut the computer off. Unscrew the cover and pull the brackets that hold the sticks in place. Never touch the pins of the memory sticks! Put the new stick in: pins in the slot first and then lay it down flat. Put the cover back on and screw it in. That should do it.
Hope that helps, feel free to reply with questions.

No there isn't  You have to buy a certain number of Wii points, then go into the Shopping Channel (found on the Wii Menu). When the Shopping Channel opens up you can find the Internet Channel and buy it with Wii points. You do not need to sign up for anything to do this. You just need to pay some money to get the Wii points. It might be a good idea for a Birthday present if you don't have much money. |

ya i was frustrated that you had to pay 500 wiipoints (about $5 USD) just to get access to the internet channel, its not that great either since it doesnt support flash and other things that are used on websites, the only videos you can watch are from youtube. Anyways, besides paying for the points with a credit card you can also go out and buy the pre-paid point cards which is what i did.

Its a pretty cool little channel that allows you to basically use Internet Explorer except with the Wii instead of a computer. It comes in use if someone else in your home is using the computer and you need to check e-mail or something.
