guyz, would you recommend I upgrade to 4GB (for $90) directly as I buy the 2.4 alu MacBook from Apple online store, as many third-party kits seem to cause problems, and it's not the same for everybody...A third-party kit is around $60, so I'd be paying an extra $30 but would guarantee that the one offered by Mac store actually works, right?

Just as you never see the bad days in a photo album, it seems that you don't see the good days in these forums.

The thing is I upgraded my RAM from Crucial last week and so far works great, I consider myself to be a power user and just before I installed I made very exhaustive research on the matter.. on Crucial's website all I found was 'Excellent' reviews and in Apple's discussion forums all I found was bad news... so I decided to take a chance and luckily I worked out for the best..

The performance now on my Mac it's just freakin awesome, you wouldn't believe how fast it starts and how it runs rather smoothly my virtual pc...

Hope this post is useful.
