[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1807455, member: 56379"] To expand a bit on the RAM aspect. If you were purchasing an Apple computer that had user-upgradeable RAM...then getting 8gig of RAM is probably ok (and upgrade later). Unfortunately...most Apple computers sold now do not have user upgradeable RAM. Which means you need to configure it with as much RAM as you will ever need while owning it. If you were thinking of purchasing a new Apple computer with "non-user-upgradeable" RAM...I would advise getting at least 16gig of RAM.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
