There's no sense of "I'm going to speed this computer using DDR2 by getting rid of the DDR2 and using DDR3"?

I ran
Code:
dmidecode
and got "permission denied." It didn't ask for sudo or anything.
dmidecode requires sudo.
sudo never asks to be run -- if you need it but don't use it, you get a permission denied error.
If you use sudo, it might ask for your password.
