Comments about Crucial 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple MacBook 2.16GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (13-inch Black) System:

I wanted to increase my memory to capacity and a Apple Genius recommended Crucial. It was easy to order, installed with force, however I'm not certain it made that much of an impact on my speed or ability to use multiple applications. Still determining. Maybe it did and I'm just being greedy and want more:) I think I need a MacPro not a MacBook. Oh well.
