    I just bough a White 13" Newest Model 2.16Ghz , which only has 2x512GB.
    I would like to upgrade immediately to 4G Ram. Is Crucial is the best ? Is there any body know any deal for 4G Ram, 2x 2G, PC 5300, DDR2, 200 PIN ?

    Look on newegg. Crucial is good, but just about all the brands are good. Just look for a lifetime warranty and they'll all work good.

    I've got Mushkin ram in my Black MacBook. No problems at all, and one isn't even "tested" for Apple computers.

    You end up paying a "premium" simply for memory that has been "tested" with Apple.
