I have a 2.2 ghz macbook and looking to upgrade to 4gb ram.

I'm looking at either OWC or Ramjet.

Which do you guys prefer? Any problems with either one?

Any comments will be appreciated thanks....

New heard of RAMjet. You can pretty much get RAM from any 3rd party company.

I went with Kingston Hyper X. OWC is good too.

Ramjet is suppose to be specifically made for mac's. But I'm leaning towards OWC since they have good reviews and are much cheaper.

I thought the MacBook could only take 2GB memory.

Depends on the model and year.

The newer MB can go up to 4GB.

I just ordered a 2GB stick to increase my RAM up to 3GB. Ordered some G.Skill memory from Newegg for only 30 bucks, pretty good deal if you ask me.

Realest99,

Here are a few options from Newegg. Check out the Mushkin 4GB about 2/3 of the way down... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...memory&x=0&y=0
