I have a first generation 24" Intel aluminum iMac (with the black back, not the aluminum back).
It is the mid 2007 model with the optional 2.8 ghz CPU on the Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMac_(Intel-based)#Aluminum_iMac The machine is said to support only 4GB and I ordered it with 2GB chips in each of its 2 memory slots. Recently I called Apple and they gave me the official position: no upgrade possible on this machine. Still, I'm wondering if it is possible to put 2x4GB chips in it to speed up the VirtualBox VMs I use with it... Here, it says "actual max RAM" is 6GB: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/stats/imac-core-2-extreme-2.8-24-inch-aluminum-specs.html "*Apple officially supports 4 GB of RAM, but third-parties have been able to upgrade the system to 6 GB of RAM using one 2 GB and one 4 GB memory module." Any idea on the subject ?
