Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Extreme (24-inch) System:

I installed this kit to solve a spinning beach ball type slow down. Activity monitor showed that, even with no apps open, nearly two thirds of my RAM was being taken up with background processes (active or otherwise).

This upgrade kit was easy to identify using Crucial's web site and, once ordered, arrived practically within 48 hours. Terrific.

Both units slotted in straight away and have never faltered. The iMac being so well designed made installing so simple.

Result, spinning beach ball problem gone away.
