    I know this laptop kinda suck, but I kind of want to upgrade the ram to 8gbs. Will it make any difference if I do? and what kind of ram should I buy (I don't know too much about memory or which one to buy for this laptop)? If only I can upgrade this damn processor to quadcore or anything newer : (. Thanks :D

    there won't be much difference. I have pretty much the BB model, except 1TB (2x Seagate Momentus XT hybrid drives).

    It's fast with only 4GB RAM, and there won't be much noticeable speed increase.
