I've recently bought Logic Pro 7 (woo hoo!) and I now need to upgrade my imac, which is currently running OS 10.2.8, to Panther or Tiger, and I also need to upgrade my RAM from 256 to 512. But it looks like this gonna cost about £200 from the Apple shop. So my question is: is there a cheaper way? Can I get these things second-hand? Are ther disadvantages?
Thanks a lot. Chris |

Hey glinka. I've purchased RAM a number of times through Other World Computing (it's in the USA, and I'm in Canada). Their prices are competitive and they seem to back up what they sell. They have a great RAM selector process by which you choose your model and it shows you the various types of RAM that will work with it. Check through the various makes available as the price can vary greatly simply by the "name" brand.
