Hi all,
I'm going to be ordering an iBook G4 soon but as I'm a Mac newbie (currently running windows) I have some questions, if anyone doesn't mind answering them:
Firstly, what difference does RAM make? I'm currently running 256mb SDRAM on my pc and it's fine, do I need more with an iBook?
Secondly, will the Macromedia Web Design Studio MX 2004 (wow, long name!) work with just 256mb DDR RAM? Or will I need to max it out to 640?
The reason I'm asking is that money *is* an issue. I'm going to get both the RAM upgrade (from Crucial) and the Studio eventually but I don't know which order to get them in...
Will the iBook run any better with 640? Because I won't be using it for anything other than some freeware apps and the programs that come with it.
Many thanks, in advance,
Matt.
