Well, it was my birthday recently and someone gave me a $100 dollar gift card to the Apple store. Now basically everything I would want from the store is at least over $300 right now, so I was considering buying RAM for my computer (I only have 256)..you think if I bought another 512 I would see a remarkable difference? Or if there's something better in the Apple store that I haven't found Ill take suggestions lol

Hmm, that's a decent idea. Now I just have to figure out whether or not they're updating that soon. Because I always have the bad luck of buying products right before the newer 1 comes out, and it just gets me mad lol.

Okay people extra RAM or Airport Express?

Yes, 512MB should make a noticeable difference in your system. However, I wouldn't buy it from apple. Get it offline from newegg or somewhere of the like. For the price apple is charging you, you could get a 1 GB stick of ram ;)

Since you do have a gift card though take a look at these...
Speakers -- these are pretty good; tried them out in the store

Keyboard -- idk if you like music or not but for $99 its pretty awesome
