Adding RAM is very, very easy. As a true hardware noob I'm always afraid to break stuff, but this is just a matter of removing the protection thingie on the button, clicking the extra RAM in the free slot and putting back the protection. That's it. David,

However, you should not buy ram on Mac websites. It's really expensive. Just buy your mac with 2gb and go to a computer shop for 2gp additionnal (only $40/$50). Mmmm... I am thinking to buy my first iMac... Will I choose this new or not.... ? :) Yes, new imacs seems good. However, you should not buy ram on Mac websites. It’s really expensive.

But do you really need it? I mean, the imac was already a very powerful machine, how much speed do you really need? I'm very happy with my 2.4 Ghz Macbook Pro, and I don't just check my mail on it! :) You can’t upgrade your processor. But do you really need it?

One of the advertisers on this site (Crucial Memory) can sell you some RAM that you can install. I haven't tried a RAM upgrade on the new Macs, so I am not sure how hard it would be. The processor upgrade, though, it quite a bit trickier from what I understand. David, Not that I know of.

Only $2199, (plus removal fees). On a more serious note, there is speculation that the chips are actually Montevinas. Anyone wanna buy a gently-used spleen? Only $2199, (plus removal fees).
