Just some feedback on the Pismo and memory upgrades (is Pismo discussion allowed here?)... The physical portion of the upgrade is a breeze --- pop off the keyboard, unscrew 2 (or 3 if you're getting that the second module) Phillips screws and your upgrading. HOWEVER, this machine would not start at all when we put it back together - and it started to get hot sitting there - while it was off (and not connected to the wall charger). The Apple Tech today taught me that I was 15 seconds away from a repair -- apparently you need to occasionally reset the power manager when you make these sort of changes - holding the reset button in on the back of the machine for 20+ seconds did the trick. Also - I noticed while he was doing a quick debug when I walked in that he held down the shift, control, option, and power keys for 5-10 seconds - what is the purpose of this combination? And finally - this machine came through the Apple Education store and was delivered last week. My machine arrives tomorrow from my local Mac dealer here in Portland.
