I must say that it is lightning quick.....Even though it doesn't compare to the i5's macbook pro bases that I've been testing out at best buy... plus the amount apple charges for putting in ram is robbery.. It took 15 minutes literally 15!!!!!!! and the hard drive took an even shorter time.. Just happy that macs are so easy to upgrade. I was so afraid because this is the first time i am opening up any laptop, but it was a breeze, i even used a knife to unscrew the screws (not recommended lol). So for anyone who is afraid about upgrading ram or the hard drive its simple. Unscrew the screws, pop the back off, clip out the ram and clip the new ones back in......and take off the whatever thingy that connected to the hard drive switch them, and boot from usb or dvd the new OS you want to install, then use migration assistant. Piece of cake literally. Thanks apple, and for those who helped me realize that upgrading on a mac is literally a walk in the park...
