i just bought kingston ddr2 667 ram. u need 2X1gig ram. well i bought the value ram. it's fast but i applied some illustrator effect n it just closed. i'm not sure if the illustrator error or ram. other then that everything is perfect. i got it for rm 250 X 2 = 500.
macbook setup is 2X512ram. anyone want my macbook ram can pm me. i might consider selling it.
now my mac macbook c2d 2.0 ghz and 2gb ram. envy? guess what, super fast load for many application like large movie files, email which my mailbox has ard close to 1k of mails + attachments.

btw, i bought the skin like protector for macbook kb n arm rest for 35buck ! u can get it at IT mall. it's much better then those selling at mac shop. thin, cover almost every area and it's cheap.

d biggest difference is that one has a graphic card while d other doesnt.....

other than that,its quite d same,apart from HDD size and other output slots...
n of course the finish.MB is white while MBP is silver aluminium finish...

if u dont play games,video editing (and some other photo editing or 3d stuff) i think u could survive on a MB..

FAT32 is only available to drives up to 32GB.so if u r formatting for a drive dat has 320BG,its impossible.unless

1.u make it up into smaller 32 GB partition
2.using other programs such as partition magic..

hope this helps
