Looks like I'm gonna keep on rocking my pre-Covid era computer without an upgrade for a few more years.

Luckily two and a half years ago I decided it was time for a new computer. I go more than a decade between new PCs so it was just really dumb luck that I got a new computer when I did. And the reason I can go so long between computers is because I always get way more RAM than I need when I get a new one.

So given the current state of things, it's a little awkward to admit how much RAM is in my computer.
