I've implemented a number of Production Servers in my time, and with the 
cost of Memory being so low, I am wondering why there is So Little 
invested in your server's memory?

Before a 'Server' can be scaled, it would be helpful to understand how 
it was going to be used, and approximately how many users it was going 
to support.

An investment in at Least another 256 MB Stick is highly recommended.  
It's the cheapest investment you can make in your servers performance.
