OWC Offers MacBook Memory Upgrades

By Digital Trends Staff Published October 25, 2009

Other World Computing, a Mac tech specialist, earlier this week announced new memory upgrade kits for Apple’s new MacBook and MacBook Pro models. Prices for these kits start at $99 and they look to be available now.

1GB and 2GB memory upgrade kits, said OWC, will allow Apple MacBook and MacBook Pro owners the ability to have enough memory to fully use the computers’ Intel Dual-Core processors. The kits are reportedly easy to install to the Macs’ user-upgradeable memory slots and Apple allows for user installation of these MacBook memory upgrades without warranty violation and instructions are provided in every MacBook and MacBook Pro user manual.

Samsung Galaxy Book5 360 Pro vs. MacBook Air 15: a narrower gap

samsung galaxy book5 pro 360 review featured 9267d9

There are some great 15-inch laptops, as well as similar-sized 16-inch machines, that have started to take over the large laptop space. The Apple MacBook Air 15 is a great laptop that's a leader here thanks to a solid build, great performance, and even better battery life.

But Windows laptops have a new weapon in the efficiency wars with Intel's new Lunar Lake chipsets. The Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro 360 2-in-1 uses Lunar Lake for better efficiency, but is it enough to take over the crown from the MacBook Air 15? Unfortunately not.
