I feel the same way. Unfortunately my MBP 15 inch is already maxed out
on RAM (8mb). I'd love to up it even more.
One thing I've noticed is that while it makes a difference on a Mac,
it makes a huge difference for a PC. On my PC laptop I have 4 gig of

You will get a much larger performance boost with Processor and Graphics Cards.
