Mac gurus tell me - is it possible to upgrade RAM in a MacBook Pro? I’m ready to buy one (my first Mac since the Mac SE I had in college!! :elderly: ).

The price difference between a MBP 2GB and 4GB RAM is $630!! WTH? Seems like RAM is so cheap these days - what’s the deal? Is it really hard to install? Or not even available as a separate component I can install myself?

Do tell plz k thnx. 😃
