Some interesting news...
On Mac rumors, People are saying that the new line of macbooks have a more efficient video playback. http://www.macrumors.com/2008/10/18/...pros-and-airs/ Also 9to5mac is speculating that the new macbooks might not be limited to 4Gb only. http://9to5mac.com/8GB-MacBook-NVIDIA | ||||||||

Santa Rosa Macbook Pros could handle 8GB of RAM easily but the question is can the software use it and how much are 4GB SODIMMs these days? Especially DD3 4GB SODIMMS

@amg99:
Thank you for the links you have contributed. We appreciate your enthusiasm in sharing articles about the new MacBook line. In the future however, please consolidate your posts as best as you can so that it will not be misconstrued as 'post-padding'. PhilMUG welcomes you but frowns on this practice. | ||||||||
