[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1622437, member: 24160"] You should get your facts straight. When Apple moved to the Intel platform beginning in Jan '06, the "Core Duo" was in fact not "cheap junk". The "Core Duo" was Intels latest and greatest chip at that time. The "Core 2 Duo" did not even exist at the time of those 1st generation Intel based Apple computers. The "Core 2 Duo" was not released by Intel until the end of July '06, and Apple updated the whole lineup of Macs with that new chip by the end of that year. There are also [B]"no"[/B] reports of being able to use 3 GB in any "Core Duo" Mac. The max RAM in that 1st gen Intel Macintosh is indeed 2 GB. It was not until the 2nd gen Intel Macs, equipped with the "Core 2 Duo" that it became possible to have 3 GB usable RAM. edit: Do you know what a period is? [/QUOTE]
