I think what you need to decide is fisrstly wether you want to spend the extra money on expensive ddr2 ram or if you want to spend the same amount on more ddr1 ram.
Yes i think getting more DDR is a better solution than forking out so much for DDR2..

Get a Transcend/Kingston/Corsair 512*2 PC3200 in Dual channel.. YOu'll have 1 GB RAm with smoking performance!

I don't want a card for games,
how much more will I have to spare if I go for 915P instead of 915GAV.

I mean how much will a (cheap) graphic card cost for watching movies and doing normal tasks on the PC.
For Movies and normal tasks the GMA 900 onboard on a GAV shd be more than enuf.. You can even play some new games on lower resolution with it..

I wud suggest go for a GAV rite now with a GB (or atleast 512MB) RAM .. Afterwards if you develop the inclination for games get a graphics card , which will be cheaper at that time.
