U see. Havnt started already got ppl interested. Quick guys, what u all waiting for.
Just remember to grab your MB/MBP along, with your hard cash or plastic card. Go to the shop, tell them u want the RAM and u have the cash, Im sure many of them will give u their best price. |

I have just upgraded my RAM to another 1Gb...so i now have 1.5Gb in my MacBook Pro. The RAM i upgraded is a Kingston DDR2 KVR667. Cost : RM320/- at LYP.Tested it for a few days now...and i am running on basic apps like Office 2004 and the original MAC OS Tiger...no problem so far. I use my notebook for at least 6 hours continuously...and its fine. Will update you guys if anything comes along. |
