Is that OK for my Macbook? I currently have the 256x2 config which runs really too slowly for my liking...will I be able to stick one of those in with a 256 in the other no probs? I know you aren't supposed to mix sizes, but it will be OK right?

Cheers. :)

Yep, that's the one. And mixing sizes is no problem; it merely takes away a performance benefit.

Cheers, man. I bought some, so hopefully I will see a fairly significant performance boost compared to the frankly painful speed that it ships with!

Yep. I always tell people who are installing notebook memory that if they don't feel like they're breaking it, they're not pushing hard enough. :D

That brand of RAM you bought is the same brand I always buy. I'll be picking up a gig of that in the Spring. Good choice.

In general, RAM is RAM. I'm sure it'll be fine. If not, it's your damn fault. :D
