[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1525836"] Nick: definitely blue. My understanding is that Apple certifies the amount of RAM that has been thoroughly tested for a particular model at the time of release and then never updates that listing. So, at some point in the future, when manufacturers can make modules that hold twice as much RAM but still be compatible with the older modules, you get situations like this. From a reputable vendor like OWC, I wouldn't question their expertise on this and would say that if you want the 16GB kit ... go for it. [/QUOTE]
