The posting is somewhat directed towards the just announced MBP without the Express slot, and not just the existing MBP’s. I am finding I need the 8GB of RAM option since I regularly am required to run virtual machines for a different task. Since my MBP only accepts 6GB, I am looking at a new one. I also realize the Early 2009 MBP’s are supposed to work with 8GB although not certified by Apple. I could try to find one of those new or used, but if we’re eventually going to be forced into this new Apple model, I am just trying to find out if my meager editing station will work reliably.

Thanks

Thanks Michael. I kind of figured this was a “roll your own” situation. I kind of wondered if anyone else has it working reliably. My guess is the 17″ MBP only has the Express slot because it is the last design rev, and when it gets freshened they’ll pull it as well. Of course Apple could get smart and put it back on all the MBP’s 🙂
