It's interesting to see just how permeant virtual memory has become in our everyday lives. It seems like everywhere I turn, I see something with a card slot or USB port, lol. I guess it makes sense though, considering how much more afforable memory has become as of late...

Ahhh... I shouldn't be moaning and groaning. I can't get by a single day without using my R4 / R4i!
