It doesn't have to be balanced. The only thing that's "balanced" is RAM sizes. There are 128 MB sticks, 256 MB sticks, 512, 768, 1 GB, etc. Putting them together will simply result in a different amount. I have 768 MB of RAM in my PC right now. I have a 512 MB stick and a 256 MB stick. That equals 768 MB. Wahoo!

Sounds like your friend is trying to make it more complicated than it needs to be. PCs will accept any amount of RAM as long as it's the correct type for the motherboard.
