[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1647739, member: 56379"] What I'm saying is the 2 x 2gig = 4gig ram upgrade is the best value ($13.20/gig). But if you don't have a problem paying the $134.59 for the 2gig + 4gig = 6gig upgrade ($22.43/gig)…then go for it.:) With a Mac you boot the computer from the OS install media you have. Then open Disk Utility…then do the formatting & erasing. This is up to you. Whatever you prefer.:) It doesn't matter. The ram upgrade will not effect fresh OS install process. If you order the ram…it will probably take a couple days to receive it. You can do the whole hard drive & OS install stuff in the meanwhile. Then when you get the ram…it will only take you 5 minutes to install…and you will be good to operate.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
