skeletonbow: Always a good idea to go to the motherboard (motherbrain) manufacturer's website and look up their list of officially certified/tested RAM and buy only that. Make sure to install it with care to avoid getting blood on it!
Motherboard: Dell Inc. 09G8VY. Now I just need to find Corsair or Kingston RAM.

The thing is not flexible for upgrades.

Dessimu: You stumped me.

And you crashed my door. You owe me a door now.

You can pay your dept in those puzzle recommendations. If not, my guys will fry them out of you. Because of a door.
Well, hey, that's my job.

Next time, don't bait me like that! Using my name and "puzzle" in the same sentence is a sure way to have me crash in.

Fair enough.

zeogold: Now, if you want some games/books to help things, I can make a few recommendations based upon your time/budget/problem.

Dessimu: Yes, please. Thank you. I can say that I have time to spare and we can assume I have a load of money. The assumption would be wrong in reality, but that is for me to decide. Problem? What problem?
Only thing is, I don't know what's available in Lithuania.
Heck, I don't even remember where Lithuania IS.
I just know American stuff.

Lithuania is here, where I am. Hard to miss.

Try American stuff. You would be surprised what we have here.

I looked it up. There's another one of those countries I forgot existed.

Lumosity?
The Brain Age series?
Any book by Dominic O'Brien?
The following puzzle?

Imagine you are a bus driver.
You drive the bus and arrive at the first stop, where 15 people get on. You continue driving for some time, and at the second stop, three people get off and one person gets on. You drive some more, and at the third stop, seven people get off and five get on. Finally, you arrive at your final stop, where everybody gets off.
Now, two questions:
1. Why didn't the bus driver return to the station?
2. What is the bus driver's favorite drink?

Lumosity. Digital? No problem, available everywhere.
Brain Age series. Nintendo games? Whatever it is, it is possible to get from Amazon. Yes. Unless it is viagra. And I am mentioning this only because Google showed me.
Dominic O'Brien books. Works for me. I have heard of them, never got a chance to read them. Maybe I can find digital copies somewhere.

And I will take another look at the puzzle shortly.
So far - you are doing great job, I honestly expect more recommendations.

Quick question about the puzzle - is there a dirty joke involved?

2. What is the bus driver's favorite drink?
1. At the last stop everyone got off. Everyone means driver included. There is no one to drive a bus now, so the driver did not return to the station.
2. Not specified in any way I have no idea, impossible to tell.

Now, if I am wrong, say I am wrong. And for which question.

1 is right. 2 is where the memory part is involved.

Arm... He doesn't remember what he likes drinking?

NO! Wait... If I have to assume I am a bus driver, so asking what the driver likes to drink is the same question as what do *I* like to drink! Basil tea was mentioned in this thread, but I have not tasted it. But I did mention coffee. So my answer is coffee!

No. You just have to remember the riddle.

Upgraded my previous second attempt to answer the question.

Nicely done!

You've come to the right guy.

It takes three men two days to dig one hole.
It takes five men one day to dig two holes.
It takes one man one week to dig three holes.
How many men and how many days does it take to dig half a hole?
