I recently bought some more memory for it and now I want to give it more hard drive space ... it tells me I only have 1 GB free. However, I'm in over my head now. I don't know where to search or what to even search for! All I can find to purchase is "CPU" and I have no idea if that's the right gizmo. I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to hardware, as you can see.

Go to the SYSTEM PROFILER in your Mac under the APPLE to find out about 
your Mac ...  then try going here and enter the type of Mac you have in 
the appropriate place.
