Admittedly a little overkill, but I was wondering about the 2GB RAM limit. Is that a hardware thing so that each slot can only support 1GB? Would the computer work if I stuck a 2GB DIMM into a slot?

I believe that the current MacBook (2.0 and 2.16 GHz) now support 3 GB of RAM.

See this ([QUOTE=ricgnzlzcr;3821927]Oh I understand.) thread.
You might want to fix that link.
I believe the limit was 3.2GB if you used 2x2GB DIMM's.
