    Thanks, but I want to know the manufacturer. I plan on selling them when I get my macbook, and I'd rather do that BEFORE I get my macbook.

    You won't know that until you open it up and look at them, I'm afraid - I know Apple has used several RAM suppliers, no idea which one they favor now or if they use several.

    It varies. I don't remember what mine had and since it's in my wife's notebook now, I'm not gonna look, but they use several brands.

    My Macbook which was bought around 3 months ago and it uses Nanya memory. Like others have said, you should wait until you receive the notebook before you sell the RAM.

    From what I've seen Nanya and Hynix are the main ones, well the ones as of 3-4 weeks ago, I've upgraded about 5 MacBooks from 512 to 2gb, about 8 were Hynix, and the rest were Nanya.
