Why are you waiting for the next speed bump?! It will only be a speed bump!

Even the last-model could take 6GB. The current ones can also take 6GB.

i thought the new ones can only take 4gb?

According to Apple the limit is 4GB, but in reality the limit is 6GB.

What do you actually use the machine for? Do you know if you actually need that much RAM?

Why do you need 6gb of RAM? the difference between 4 and 6 on a 32bit OS isnt going to be noticable unless your an extreme user or a proper benchmarking geek.

well i wont go to 6 until snow leopard but even than ill probably just stay at 4gb. It uses quite a bit when in garageband though. and i use that quite a lot

looking forward to those cheap DDR3 4GB modules! I'm on 3GB atm in prep for replacing the 1GB module with a 4GB!

I remember reading back in Oct/Nov that many users who upped their Aluminum MB's up to 6 gigs had some stability and usability problems. Any word if that has changed?

Hi,

I have a white 2.1ghz macbook, bought just recently in january from the apple store. When i look at 'About this Mac' it says it is version 4.1.

I am looking to upgrade my RAM to speed up Logic, but i have read conflicting reports on whether it supports up to 4GB or 6GB.

Does it support 6GB? and if so are there any stability issues with it?

Thanks
