Upgrade later... Apple's RAM prices are really high, you can save up to 50% if you install it yourself later + it's fairly easy to do!

Get the 512 and save your money.

I am selling my 1GB off my Macbook. Save some money and buy it off me and get the OEM 1gb ram. PM me.

The macbook makes it extreamly easy to upgrade the ram, so I would go and get the 512 of apple and then buy ram from a 3rd party seller, Then you would end up with 1.25gb of rams

you get better perforamce with 2 same types of ram FYI, macbooks are dual channel... some ppl say it doesnt matter but this is what apple reccomends and there were reviews where they tested this and it was true (i'd get a link for you but I forget where I saw it)
