You can import music from itunes or create your own music and voice- overs in garage band, then add it to your movie. Dollar for dollar, considering all the software that comes with it, a mac is a great investment. Oh, macs can also run windows if you prefer that interface and have already made the investment in expensive software. As far as upgrading the memory to host software, do you mean for installing the software on your computer? Not enough storage space left on the box? If so, you're looking at a hard drive upgrade. Memory is a completely different thing. Memory actually is what your computer uses to run software more efficiently and is usually sold in chipsets that you have to install on the logic board of your computer. It's a fairly straightforward process that is easy to do. The hardest part of the operation is to determine what the maximum amount of memory your computer supports and what flavor it is (SODIMMS, DIMMS, RIMMS, SD, etc.). Look in you owners manual to find this out or search your particular make and model of computer on the web for the specs. From there you just purchase what you need and install it when it arrives. Hope this helps and good luck! Sincerely, David J. Syrotiak syrotiak-AT-comcast.net www.nmtshow.com On Mar 20, 2009, at 1:32 PM, Betty T.
