Other World Computing announced today its 16GB memory upgrade kits for Apple Mac mini, MacBook Pro, and iMac models are now available for under $100…a cost savings of over 66 percent compared to comparable sized factory options. Fully certified for Apple Macintosh computers, these memory upgrade kits come backed by a lifetime replacement warranty, free installation videos, and free shipping for an even greater value.
More Memory and 15 Minutes = Faster Mac
Adding more memory is the most cost-effective, benchmark-proven performance upgrade offered. Easily installable in most Macs in 15 minutes or less, having more RAM enables optimum performance of typical daily computer uses, as well as dramatically improving the responsiveness of memory intensive applications. Users wanting to run Windows and Mac applications simultaneously via Parallels will gain especially exceptional results.

We were contacted by a very high level source today that had received some serious misinformation that the factory flash drive in the 2012 13″ MacBook Pro with Retina display was soldered in, thus leaving the machine not able to be upgraded. We won’t go into details, but it was enough that we thought that we should nip any bad info in the bud about this, in case you too may have been misinformed.
As the Holidays rapidly approach, it gets somewhat tempting to justify gatting a new Mac as “a gift to yourself.” After all, those new iMacs are pretty slick-looking. And, you know what – there’s nothing wrong with that if you’ve already maxed out your RAM and have added a fast OWC SSD, yet are still craving more power. Heck, aside from the new Retina display-equipped MacBook Pros and the MacBook Airs, you can pretty much use the same SSD in the 2012 models as you could with earlier iterations.
