Upgraded the RAM and added an OCZ SSD this past week. It's a rocket now :)

Any recommendations on whether I should upgrade anything? Should I consider selling to get a newer model?

8 Gigs of ram.(16 if its supported?) Take out your optical drive and put in a sad as your boot drive. Makes a HUGE differnce.

Probably a stupid question, but why are some of you guys blocking out your computer's serial number?

For privacy.

Is it possible for someone to use it maliciously? :confused:

Yes. It was possible to get a copy of Snow Leopard for a very low price, just with a hardware serial number (contains the manufacturing date of a Mac) via Apples Hardware-Up-To-Date program. iLife 09 too, IIRC. Apple changed it for Lion, but i'm sure you can still do many "funny" things, just with a Mac hardware serial number.

I thought it would be fun to make my Apple green. Life needs a little color sometimes.

At first, I made it red, but then I thought, "Hey, I like green apples better, really."

I sort of expected someone to show up here with a pink one, since pink is always the new black and all that. :p

I also edited my login screen Apple the exact same green, but I didn't bother to take a screenshot of it, since it's exactly the same.
