Your best bet is to get a 256 MB RAM module and replace the 128 MB RAM module
with it, or if you have four RAM slots, add another 128 MB RAM module. I just
took the RAM in my G$ Sawtooth from 896 RAM to 1.5 GB RAM. It has four slots,
so the first two slots are 512 MB RAM modules and the last
Have you maxed out the RAM? Do you have a video card that has at least 128 MB
of RAM? They could help reduce the demand on the hard drive and thus cut down
on the hard drive noise.

Maybe, but it doesn't have the sharp edges the aluminum unibody MacBook has,
and you could buy the low end stock model for $999 to accomplish what she wants
to do with it. I would probably have Apple put in the extra 2GB RAM, or do it
myself, and get a bigger hard drive than 120 GB.
