Works great... |
| Comments: |
The memory arrived in a timely way, was priced way below the competition, and it obviously works, because I'm writing this review on the very computer I upgraded. It is certainly among my easiest upgrades, and a contender for the easiest, period. What may keep it out of the running for the top slot is the tiny little oddball screws that hold together my Macbook Pro's case. But that's not Pro Memory Upgrade's doing.
Listen - if you want to upgrade the memory in your Mac, DON'T go to the Mac store. Seriously. This is the same RAM, and it's a whole lot cheaper. And no, they're not paying me to say this. :-) |

uneventful purchase |
| Comments: |
Over the past 5 or 6 years, I've purchased RAM from the same online store. When I found PRO memory with better price, I was pleasantly surprised and reasonably doubtful because there are just way too many crooks on the WWW. Well, the good news is that I bought the RAM from PRO and so far so good. No surprise charges and the merchandise arrived on time. The true test will be how well the chips last of course. So we'll see. |

Don't forget to reset PRAM! |
| Comments: |
After replacing my original 4GB, I initially had an issue with my MBP hanging after restoring from sleep. Once I remembered to reset PRAM, the problem cleared up. Great price, quick shipping, and no (other) surprises! |
