[QUOTE="Wobbly_Cheese, post: 352673, member: 15831"] Hello everyone. I got my Black C2D MacBook around Christmas time. I have been LOVING it ever since. It is quite the upgrade from my old iBook G4. At any rate who. I won't lie. Sometimes when I'm doing work it does tend to slow down. (I bought it to do design work with primarily, however it gets used for everything.) It tends to beachball alot when I'm going alot of tasks at once. Most commonly, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, CSSEdit, iTunes, along with maybe Preview open, Safari, and Firefox; all at once. Now, I have 1 GB in it right now. I was wondering if another GB would help this issue at all? I can get 2 GBs for about $170.00. Lastly, I read that mix/matching the MacBook would get up to 3 GBs of recognized memory. Now, Apple doesn't say this because they don't support mix/matching. However, will I see even more of an improvement with 3 GB over 2?? Thanks for any help. And hopefully I can kick these thoughts of maybe I should upgrade to the Pro! I like my BlackBook. :headphone [/QUOTE]
