I've decided that I want to do the upgrade myself to save money. I'm going to buy through NewEgg, but what exactly do I buy. 4gb of any RAM? If someone could post a link to a recommendation that would be very helpful.

It really depends on which Macbook Pro you have. Get back to us on when you bought it and we can give you the exact specs you need to look for.

Or go to crucial and download their scanner which will tell you exactly what you need. You can also buy from them as well or from someone else. It tells you what type and how much your computer can handle, so you can make your purchase based on that information.

I don't know what to tell you, but I can access the page just fine. What browser are you using? I always use firefox and haven't had any problems accessing webpages on my MB.

This is the link you want.
