I have a 2.33 GHz 15" 2gb 120gb MBP, Its been feeling a bit choppy since I upgraded to Leopard and I was wondering if a 2gb stick of Crucial ram in place of one of the stock 1gb ram would help smooth things over? And if I would run into any problems after installing it?

More RAM will help you in many cases. How you can really see if you have a memory issue is by opening up the Activity Monitor and checking your system memory. I would recommend you purchase another stick of 1gig of RAM and see where that gets you.

I have found that some applications have memory leaks. Leopard is smooth and flowing until I open and close the application.
