[QUOTE="Kash, post: 369634, member: 23444"] Ahh, buddy, that's NOT how you install RAM on a Macbook. The procedure is different for the Macbook and the Macbook Pro. Your method is for the latter. I just upgraded the RAM on my Macbook about 20 minutes ago. I followed this [URL="http://homeoffice.consumerelectronicsnet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=44404"]guide[/URL], which was very helpful (then again, I've been tinkering with hardware for years :)) I noticed a huge difference when running Parallels. I can now have several other programs open without the machine slowing down (not to mention the fact that I can now allocate more RAM to XP, which makes it run smoother). Netty, I suggest you check out Newegg for RAM as well. I got a set of 2x1GB for only $128, which turned out to be slightly cheaper than Crucial ($144). Plus, I absolutely love their service. Ordered the RAM Tuesday night, got it Thursday afternoon. Now THAT is speed :) [/QUOTE]
