Well, I officially have as much memory as I had storage in my first laptop. Thus, I expect to have 120 GB of ram in six years. Micron, are you listening?
So far, for the most part the user experience is unchanged. However, I have noticed a big different in the performance of larger rosetta apps, such as image ready. Before if I used an adobe product and firefox, performance lagged when I switched back and forth between them. But, now things to be a bit smoother.

welcome to the 2gb world. It’s really nice having that. I’ve recently upgraded to 4 gb on my new computer. If you have the room, I recomend 4gb
bastard…..my ram upgrade is still a little out of my price range. It’s crazy the laptop ram is so low where as my ram for a desktop is not dipping as much as hoped.
Ideally I would like to purchase an external HD, a 20 inch flat panel, 2GB of ram and Leopard. I don’t see this happening anytime soon though.

Brad, unfortunately, the macbook can only handle 2GB. So I am maxed out in that respect. I could put 4 GB in my G5 (currently have 3), but I don’t use it enough to justify the cost.
My sun box at work has 4G in it, and I barely break the 1G mark. I assume the system caches it, but it’s not reported to me as actual usage.
