About to install 8GB into mini.

Should come tomorrow. Update to 8GB over the 2GB I have now. Hope it was worth the $99. Time to crack it open again.D:
 
If you run VMs or Windows apps a lot, that will help tremendously.

In fact, it helps tremendously either way. No need to close Photoshop while you go crazy in Safari.
 
I updated my 13" MBP from 2GB to 8GB and it is much better now. I was doing some work on it and noticed that I had 4.5 GB of RAM used.
 
I upgraded my mini from 1gb to 8gb. Yeah, it made a world of difference. 2gb would've been a big update, but VM's are now possible.
 
I have 8GB in my MBP and it was well worth the upgrade. Unlike on my former windows machines where it seemed like a rate of (greatly) diminishing return I felt like going from 4GB to 8GB made the MBP run a good bit better. Especially considering the low cost of RAM.
 
Of course it didn;t come today. Bummer.

You can NEVER have too much ram. I max out each system I buy. Usually within one year of purchase.

I actually forgot how to take the mini apart its been so long......
 
All I can say is now I can have IE open with 14 tabs and still have LOTS of ram left over. OS X however seems the same, maybe a tad better with firefox.
