Macbook Memory

Hi there folks! New guy here, with a quick question for all you more knowledgable types. I'm thinking of picking up one of the new Intel MacBooks in a couple of months. When I get it, I'd like to get as much RAM as I can, just so it'll run as smoothly as possible. It looks like the Apple store charges $500 for an upgrade to 2GB of RAM, which is kind of expensive. However, there seem to be places online (such as http://http://www.4allmemory.com/?pid=316&kwd=macbook memory ) where I can get memory for considerably less. Is there any downside to picking up the Mac with the smallest amount of memory installed and simply upgrading on my own?

That's what I did with my Powerbook. Depending on the RAM you get, you shouldn't have any problems. I've ordered RAM from RamJet three times for an iMac and two Powerbooks. No problems at all. I'd highly recommend them.
