Hi guys ,
I bought my powerbook 15 days ago and i am really pleased by its performance.Currently i am using logic pro 7.0 with few plug-ins but i am going to install some really "heavy" ones and i was thinking of upgrading it from 512mb of ram to 1.5 by buying a 1 gig stick.Actually i didn't buy the ram from apple because many people told me that i could upgrade it by myself saving much money.Can you tell me what kind of ram memory do i have to buy(DDR SDRAM ?) and if there is something like a manual showing how to open the pb and put the stick inside(i think that i had found a pdf but i am not sure) Thank you for everything ! |

Skive31,
Not sure which PB you have from the posts below. On the 15" G4 Aluminum PowerBook there is a RAM access door on the middle rear of the computer. There are two RAM slots behind this door (accessed by 4 #0 phillips head screws). A maximum of 2GB of RAM can be installed (2x 1GB RAM SODIMMs). I have had great luck with Memory X for spec, price, reliability and service. The site will guide you to the appropriate RAM module for any computer you may need additional memory for. I have used this site for about 20 different computers ranging from a Biege G3 desktop to a new PowerMac G5 (including some PCs as well) for myself, my friends and family. Since I am the tech guy for many of my friends and family I like to make sure that I won't have to spend too much time supporting them. Good site, good prices. So far (4+ years) good luck with the RAM I have purchased there. peace, deacon -------------------- |
