You just have to buy the APP package. In there will be a serial key. You can then just follow the instructions. Not sure if it's possible directly online, but I think it is. If you have to, carry your Macbook serial number and original bill with you to the store.

I think yours can go upto 3GB. Not sure though.

It's been the same. Don't buy Memory from apple though. They overcharge.

Just get: DDR2, 667Mhz, SODIMM (Laptop memory). Installing RAM into a macbook is really simple.

Approximately 3.2-3.4 (not sure of the exact number) is the most that your macbook can use. So if you put in 4 then only a little over 3 will be able to be used.
