Hi guys!

A friend of mine is still rocking a 20" iMac from 2007 with 10.5.8
I wanted to upgrade it to 10.9 but for this it does not have enough RAM (has 1GB, I would prefer 4 or 8, even if Apple says 2GB is minimum)

First question:
Any other thoughts on going to 10.9 with this setup (and ofcourse the upgraded 4 or 8 ram)

Second question:
What kind of Ram am I looking for?

Here are the specs;

I have had that iMac and it uses 667 MHz 200-pin DDR2 SO-DIMM RAM, available from Newegg.
It has two slots for two modules, and the maximum it supports is 6 GB, thus you need to get a 4 GB and a 2 GB module.
