February 27, 2008, Woodstock, IL — Other World Computing (OWC)
http://www.macsales.com, a leading Mac and PC technology company, announced
today that it is offering 4GB Memory Kits for Apple’s newly announced
MacBook and MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo models, which began shipping yesterday,
February 26, 2008. OWC is providing memory for these new MacBook 13″
2.1GHz/2.4GHz Core 2 Duo Models and MacBook Pro 15″ & 17″ 2.4GHz/2.5GHz
(including 2.6GHz optional configuration) Core 2 Duo models. OWC memory is

provides $20 cash back for the trade-in of two 1GB modules.
OWC, an expert in the Mac memory market, has nearly two decades of
experience providing memory module upgrades for Mac computers. OWC has
conducted independent memory benchmarks on MacBook laptops, which show how
important memory is for customers employing high-memory intensive
applications, such as audio/video, photo, 3D modeling, gaming and other
applications. OWC has concluded that more memory is better overall than
having less memory that is interleaved.
“We’re all about maximizing performance and impressively, we’ve found there
can be better performance attained even between 2.0GB and 3.0GB memory
configurations than getting a new system with a faster processor,” said
Larry O’Connor, President, OWC. “More memory makes a tremendous difference,
as our real world testing illustrates, and going up to 4.0GB offers a
noticeably significant benefit beyond just what a faster processor
provides.”
