checked with Apple...to do so for the new MBP will cost a whopping RM1399! it means discarding the 2X1G RAM in the new MBP and fitting in a 2 x 2G RAM.....

anyoone can suggest a cheaper option?

cheers

Mac RAM has always been ridiculously expensive in Malaysia. I bought my RAM upgrade from MCEtech (together with a harddrive upgrade too). I'd also recommend One World Computing at http://eshop.macsales.com/.

If you do go the online route be sure to ship FedEx International Priority. Saving on shipping just doesn't make sense as it's not only the time taken to transport but also the fact that they will facilitate passage through customs.

I also bought the Marware Protection Pack from Machines in MidValley. Given that this is available online for around USD35; the fact that Machines is selling for RM180 thereabouts reinforces what we already know about our local mac retailers....

Buy online.

Thanks MacDanife....
checked the MCEtech and found this
http://store.mcetech.com/Merchant2/merchan...Product_Count=0
-and with the Fedex Priority shipping you recommended its comes up to about USD285...
about 400RM cheaper than what i was quoted here....good value..thanks!
