I ordered an iBook for my office and requested extra memory but they only 
got me the standard 512. I am wondering the same thing.

work. Things might run a <br>&gt;  little faster with more

bogged it down a <br>&gt;  couple of times (had what The Register calls 
&quot;world + dog&quot; open).<br>&gt;<br>&gt;So see how it runs; if you're 
happy with the speed as-is, don't <br>&gt;worry  about upgrading right away. 
As you gravitate more and more to <br>&gt;using  the iBook constantly (which 
you *will* do, especially if you <br>&gt;have an  Airport card), you may 
want to re-think that.<br>&gt;<br>&gt;--<br>&gt;Larry Kollar    k  o  l  l
