Hi
I have recently bought a macBook and after a few months i've used 60-70 GB's and its starting to get a bit slow :S i was about to buy 160GB hard drive and 2GB Memory when some one told me it would void my warranty. is this true? if so how can i get around it?

thanks
Jamie

I'm pretty sure that changing the HDD yourself doesn't void the warranty - I know the RAM doesn't, it's all just 3 screws away in your battery compartment.

changing the ram and hd on your mb will not void the warranty
