It won't void the warranty.
Just a quick check with everyone, anyone experiencing distortion on the screen since upgrading RAM and Lion? Mine happened twice, ever since I upgraded to Lion. Before that, when I was using Snow Leopard, don't seem to have this problem. I'm worried that it's a RAM issue, although a lot of other places that I read is mainly due to Lion OS. |

If you get it from C-Zone, they can install for you. But the RAM there are slightly higher price compare to Viewnet. |

Nevertheless, once you get used to it, fear no more to DIY. so u change the RAM on your own or did you had someone else to do it?  |
