How much time (money) do you spend waiting on installers to run, when you force them to use 100x slower memory, a.k.a. swap? What about the run time of your test application? Are you sure it never hits swap? I obviously don't know which SFF box you have, but I just put a random Shuttle model number into crucial.com and it told me a 1 GB upgrade (512 MB matched pair) is $50. You're not going to save an hour or two of company time over the expected lifetime of these machines? Really?
