    I am about to buy a Thinkpad Edge 14 and want to purchase it with 2GB of RAM and add another 2GB myself to save some money instead of purchasing it with 4GB. A 2GB stick of 1066Mhz laptop RAM costs about $40 on NewEgg, while the additional 2GB upgrade on Lenovo's site costs $85. I am on a tight budget so this $45 dollars saved would help me stay within my budget.

    Anyways, I was wondering if the RAM slots on this particular model were easily accessible to add more RAM myself. I need an answer by tonight so quick responses are appreciated!

    This would be my first laptop, so excuse me if this is a dumb question.
