I'm 2 hours from ordering a Macbook SR...bad idea?

Ahh - my only problem with your choice was the RAM. Apple likes to pork people over that. Should try and downgrade your ram choice, and buy it 3rd party via Crucial or a competitor. No idea what Apple gets for ram now, but last year they wanted something crazy like 750 bones for 3 Gigs in the imac. And I bought it third party for 150. So unless it's a standard offering, or you do NOT want to put in your own ram - try and put that cash towards something else.

Is it easy to replace ram in the macbooks? Is there a slot opening?

Not to mention the MacBook manual and the illustrations when you take the battery out

You do realize I'm mentally engaging you in a Tag-Your-It / post race - right?

I was mid-way done responding to that when I opened it in another page to only see you there.

You're like the bad@$$ agents from the Matrix - everywhere...

Yes - it is super easy, and as mentioned before - if it was "Taboo" or "dangerous" Apple wouldn't have the directions printed on the bottom of Imacs, in the user manual, and tech manuals online. They'd seal it up like they do their graphics cards.

You're not even on my Buddy List either...

So you're saying to accept defeat / quit while I'm ahead, right? I didn't know anything about buddy lists - I'm still fairly new to Forum Spy -- but I somehow have this feeling - you're already replying to this post as I write it.

I've got my eyes peeled.

Don't worry. I'll just show up more often when I'm active.

e.g. right now.

Wait, so In Your Honest Opinion - of Others Opinions - It's Superior?

I wasn't done with this post - I just had to one-line it so I could beat Eidorian.

So anyhow - I only linked to offer some additional explanation from a more credible and knowledgeable source than I could provide. I know - and hopefully most everyone else - should know that Wiki is easy to fudge with, and is not the end-all-be-all. That's my love hate about Wiki - it's free and easy - but it's also not reliable due to the nature of the beast.

Well, according to some reviews I've read; for me, I could attach up a coat hanger to my laptop and still get good wifi connections - I assume when they mean 'better' I guess it is for connections that sit at the 'limit' of what wifi can support (distance from the base station).

I only remember bad reception on my iMac Core Duo.

My iMac G5 had incredible range.
