I am thinking of a second hand 2.33GHz or 2.16 GHz MBP. I know they max at 3GB RAM, but I also know the white Intel iMacs had the same "limitation" but it was best to put in two matching 2GB sticks, to keep the dual channel benefits, and you also ended up sneaking out 3.3GB of useable RAM.

Is this the same case with a MBP, or are you limited to 2GB + 1GB, and you lose the dual channel benefits?
