    Hey everyone, I was just wondering if I could upgrade the memory on my Compal HE80 to 4gb. I have a Yonah processor, but I wouldn't mind going to a Merom (obviously) for the 64bit compatibility. Thanks in advance for the answers.

    Thats a good question...

    Refering to the technical documents provided by Intel: 4GB is supported (With 64bit OS) - ftp://download.intel.com/design/mobile/datashts/30921905.pdf

    However, I've not seen any of the big name suppliers trusted around here mention support for more then 2GB. You can try contacting either Donald at Powernotebooks, or Justin at XoticPC to see what they have to say.
