hi there! I want to get a new (1,67GHz, 15'' Superdrive) powerbook and will have to install some additional RAM. Is it easy enough to do it yourself? Does anyone know where I can find instructions? Cheers

    Yeh, it's pretty simple to do, I upgraded the RAM in my 12" powerbook, and all I had to do was take a few small screws out, slot the RAM in and then close it up. You don't have to rip the keyboard out or anything, thank god!!!



    There are full detailed instructions in the Manual which you get with your powerbook.

    You will also need a very small Phillips screw driver. I mean small!
