I have an iBook g4 with 256 mb of memory. Will upgrading it to 512 increase the speed of my Ibook?
To tell you the truth, more memory doesn’t make a comp faster – it just makes it better at doing more stuff at once. So if you just want to speed up games or internet browsing, it wont help. But if you want to run multiple programs or something like Photoshop, which does a LOT of things at the same time, then yes, memory would be great. My advice though would just be to upgrade the laptop.

It depends on the age of the laptop and the processor speed and the programs running in the background (the ones that start at startup).
256mb of memory isnt much memory at all…. whats the max ram for an ibook 1.5gig?
when upgrading memory you wont just be able to add another 256mb (unless theres 2 slots) make sure you run 2 of the same size sticks (sorry i dont know mac hardware).
Either way with all of these things considered it wont change the fact that its a mac…..
