I'm interested in buying a new 12 in pb from the mac store. I'm curious if it would be easy to buy some RAM and upgrade it myself instead of paying $280 for 512mb of ram from the store. Is there a website that shows how to do this. I'd like to play around with garageband and possibly work up to Live or audio program. I believe that this would have the power that I need. I'd like to also be able to manipulate 2trk audio like in Peak or something else.

Thanks for the comments,

Jared

I put a 512 chip in my P.Book, tho I got it from the Apple Store near me, so I paid full price. Since it's new, I didn't want to void my warranty.

Installing it is crazy easy! Don't even sweat it. You pop off a panel in the back, it's like three easy steps and you just pop it in the slot.

I noticed a BIG difference with the extra 512! Made me want to up it to 1.5 gigs ASAP, although MacWorld magazine just did a test and found little difference in 1-1.5, and no difference in 1.5-2 gigs.
