I suggest buying this stick:
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/product...mp;sku=A1166146 (http://\"http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/products/Memory_Upgrades/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=A1166146\")
Because it is supposedly compatible with your desktop, or you could try here for greater selection and cheaper price (not garunteed to work in your model, but they most likely will):
1GB 184-Pin DDR SDRAM at Newegg.com (http://\"http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010170147+1052107965+1052307858&name=1GB\")

Up to 2 gb of RAM. That should work perfectly

http://cgi.ebay.com/1GB-Hynix-DDR266-PC210...1QQcmdZViewItem (http://\"http://cgi.ebay.com/1GB-Hynix-DDR266-PC2100-1-GB-DDR-266-PC-2100-Memory-Ram_W0QQitemZ200236554575QQihZ010QQcategoryZ44936QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem\")

cheaper
