If I were to buy extra 1G of Ram, why do they sell it as 512MB x 2? I know because there are two (?) slots in the memory slot for the MacBook, but i dun get why they dun sell a single 1G straight away & for me to stick in it one of the slot?
Also I'm quite a pessimist, so im afraid something might go wrong. Is it as simple as sticking the Ram in & then install? I'd actually rather let someone do this for me but not gonna let Apple blow my wallet off. =D
Thanks guy in advance

dont get it from crucial.com get it from newegg.com if you want to get crucial ram. i purchased my 2 gb from frys.com the kingston one and i am getting it for 86 shipped, which is cheaper than crucial and it will do the same thing and has a lifetime warranty as well. ram doesnt need to be installed after u put it in, just find a video on youtube showing u how to install it. also crucial should show the 1 gb modules, if not, go to newegg they have a very easy site to use, goodluck
