can you upgrade the ram yourself, or must one go through apple?

From what it says on the website you can upgrade for like 60 something bucks and I'm betting they put it in themselves

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger this weekend...

I wanted laptop but man, this is to tempting

I think porting everything over would be easy

these machines seem super cheap to me considering the display you're getting. i may have to return to the mac fold. but then i need a new card, etc. sigh.

Does that void the warranty or applecare plan though?

nope doesn't invaildade warranty. its not too expensive to have it put in when they build it though. my advice is cheap it on the harddrive and get as much ram because its actaully cheaper to get an external harddrive.
since buying my mac though using my pc seems tedious.

Kinda disappointing to see the low end model with the integrated graphics and 2mb cache. I think I'll save for the 24" after all.
