The Macs use normal sodimms - PC5300 DDR2 667mhz 200 pin notebook memory available at any supplier.
The macbook uses 2 x 512MB sodimms - hence him getting a 1 x 1gb + an existing 512MB = 1.5 GB

Check Take2 for Patriot memory, I bought 3 gigs of it for my iMac a few weeks ago.

what a huge price jump when you go from 1gb to 2gb!broken1

@ that price I'd get two x1gb. I'm not sure if the MB still benefits from having a matched pair (it might well do considering that it is shipped that way) but you'll benefit from the extra 512.

Why does Apple and all Apple Stores/websites charge in excess of R2000 if the cost price of the memory is R250 a module? Is that not a scary rip-off?
I've ordered 2 1GB Modules for my Macbook. I don't really need it, but I don't think you can go wrong with more memory...and for what it's costing, it's worth it. Should get it in Jan.
Because they always have.
Stupid really but there you are.
