Apple's specs are what Apple has tested. . . it's not really 'in error'. That's just all Apple will commit to -- in some cases, it's because that's all that was available when that machine was released, or because there may be some caveats to using more RAM. In this case, it's Apple's way of saying "512MB will work. More might, but don't call us if your computer dies." -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
