The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.5/22/10

Do you have to have matched pairs (1GB x 2 or 2GB x 2) in the Macbook laptops or is it possible to have 1GB x 1 and 2GB x 1 ?
I upgraded my other laptop to 6GB (4GB x 1 and 2GB x 1) and it works fine…. Thanks,

Your advice seems to be always on the mark. I would be interested knowing what your favorite email is. I use Gmail primarily, but like MobileMe mail beta a lot so far, and I see Hotmail is coming out with a summer update as well.
Just wondering. Thanks!

Hi Gary,
I am thinking of developing a site (part-time) for a former employer and was wanting to use iWeb.
Do you have any history with using it and what is your opinion of it? What do you use for Macmost.com?
Thanks.
