Comments about Crucial 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple MacBook 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo (13-inch White) System:

i'm not a techie but after watching a vid on youtube and getting the memory from crucial and having my computer work, i was pretty surprised with myself. My computer is way faster now and even an apple employee recommended crucial to me because they're good at what they do. it was easy to find the right RAM. Crucial and the RAM i got definitely made my life easier.
thanks!

Needed to add more memory after upgrading to Leopard. Went from 512 MB to 2GB. Didn't get one chip seated fully on first try but after I fixed that, worked with no problems.

The reference to Crucial's on-line help wasn't of any use as it was all aimed at Windows users, at least I couldn't find any Mac instructions on the web site. But I followed the instructions in my iBook manual at it was no problem.

I use my computer for personal use but make DVD very often. The memory I purchased from Crucial was easy to install and I am very happy with the transaction. It was quick and I felt confident that what I ordered was what I received.

I'm not installing it myself. All I know is that it was an easy ordering process, showed up and I'll have someone else install it. AND, mainly it was [$] vs the Apple store $200! That's what I'm talking about!

Not sure what makes one stick of memory better than another, but it installed easy and increased the response time of my mac as you'd expect from any stick of memory i guess

Comments about Crucial 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple MacBook 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo (13-inch White) System:

Crucial told me that the maximum memory I could have was 2GB with 1GB in each slot, but the MacBook manual said I could have 2GB in each slot (totaling 4GB). I didn't realize this until the drives were already in my hands, so I hope Crucial will look into the actual maximum for MacBooks. Installing was a little weird, at first the computer wouldn't turn on and the light on the bottom right side of the computer was blinking--but after I took out and reinserted the memory a couple of times, it worked. The new memory definitely speeds things up, I think it took a little time for it to "get going" but my applications run a good clip faster now. Just make sure what max memory is actually available to you.
