Memory
If I were to buy an upgrade in memory of 512 MB to go with my original of 256 MB, how does the computer use both of the memorys? Are they added together or is only one used? Thanks.

They are added together. For instance you now have 256mb. If you add 512mb, your memory would now be 768mb.Dimension 4100 Bought January 2001

The E310 supports a maximum of 2gb of memory, see here
For memory that's guaranteed to work in the E310, has a lifetime warranty and free S&H on orders of $40.00 or more, go here
How to Install Memory in a D-3100/E310 System.
Note: Memory in the E310 needs to be installed in matching pairs of modules, for maximum performance

No, you can install other brands of memory, providing the memory is compatible with the E310, hence my reason for posting the link to Crucial, their memory is guaranteed to be compatible, or they will replace it for free.
You do know, that you will loose some system performance, when you don't install matched pairs of RAM in the E310
