[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1664960"] Having done some actual serious research into this question (admittedly some years ago, but I've seen nothing to indicate that anything's changed ...), the answer to "what percentage of consumer computer (Mac or PC) owners upgrade ANYTHING hardware-wise in their machines," the answer was less than five percent. RAM was the most common thing upgraded (this was back when nearly all computers could have their RAM upgraded), but it was shockingly rarely done (well, shocking to me anyway). Power-users *continually* and *vastly* over-estimate how many of them there are among the computer-using population. [/QUOTE]
