Re: [PLUG] OT: Macbook question
|
Mag,
Check out NewEgg for the reviews on RAM. I paid $150 to upgrade my
iMac to 4GB. I bought my RAM based on the reviews there. Also, check
out DealMac.com's sister site DealRam.com. They have RAM specifically
marked for Macs in their deals.
Check Apple System Profiler (Apple Menu -> About this Mac -> More
information button) to see if you have one or two sticks. If I
remember correctly, 1GB is usually split between two RAM sticks unless
you paid more for not having that.
Inserting RAM into these machines is, um, interesting. It's not bad
or wrong, just different enough to make you wonder if you seated the
RAM correctly. I didn't get the warm fuzzy thunk of the RAM getting
seated, so I kept gently pushing. Eventually when I pressed hard on
only one corner I could feel it sink in a little. So I pressed harder
and viola, nice feeling of the insertion thunk.
HTH,
Amul
