how many RAM slots in the 24"

[redgaz26]

getting a 24 soon as the latest ones are announced, I see you get 2g of RAM but its 2 1g's, I'd like to buy an extra 2g, how many RAM slots are on the 24"?
if its only 2 like my current imac then id have to buy 2 2g's and then id have the 2 1g's i had with the mac as spare
is this correct??????

It's two.

I'm pretty sure iMacs have always had 2 slots. The Mac Pro is the only system with 4 slots.

ok thanks guys, so why do apple not put in 1 2g so we would only have to buy another 2g to make 4
or is that to simple

Eight, and soon twelve, but whatever.

The system can use the RAM more effectively if its split evenly over two SODIMMs

Its probably also cheaper for apple to use 2 1gbs instead of 1 2gb.
