From one Mac newbie to others:
Before you buy additional RAM from Apple...I ordered an extra 256MB from Apple when I placed my order for my iMac. After I sent the order through I realized I should have checked other vendors first.
The 256 MB from Apple was $75. I went to the Crucial website and ordered a 512MB stick for $83 dollars.
They both showed up today, the return address on both packages was exactly the same, from Crucial in Idaho. The Apple RAM box was labeled as Apple memory but clearly it is coming from the same place.
