I'm not sure if it will support more, necessarily.
However, I've heard that current computers can actually handle more than 4GB, but no one makes a laptop stick larger than 2GB.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, this is just my guess.

That is correct. Santa Rosa technically supports up to 8GB of ram. However, since no one makes 4GB sticks of ram, Santa Rosa on the MBP only *officially* supports 4GB of ram in a 2x2GB configuration. It is likely that in the future when 4GB sticks are available they will work in the MBP, but there is no way to know for sure what will work until they are actually released.
Actually they do sell 4GB sticks but officially from Apple, the MBP does not support 4GB sticks.
Strange they haven't managed 4 GB sticks yet.... I figured this was the answer. I figure eventually I'd need the extra ram.
It was about 100 bucks for 1 gig of ram for my powerbook.
