[Cube] upgrade

[Mike Gilpin]

Yeah, the prices for upgrades at OWC are probably twice what you paid for
your entire cube!

Maxing out the memory is much cheaper, and reports are that it helps. I have
some ordered right now for my cube.

If you're daring enough you can replace the graphics card with a better one
(either Mac-specific or flashed PC one), and you'll see a better GUI
performance using OS X.  Leopard especially relies heavily on GPU for a lot
of processing.

Occasionally you can find used upgrade cards on eBay, but they are rare.
