[QUOTE="gilesjuk, post: 378638, member: 29394"] Not yet, but I will replace the 1GB module with a 2GB soon. My iMac came with 2GB installed and I was expecting 1GB, so I had already planned on buying RAM. With Linux I managed to edit Canon 5D RAW files on my laptop which only has 512MB. So I would imagine you only need 3GB if you are editing huge files, or need to have a few open at once. [/QUOTE]
