[Ti] Crucial RAM; speed upgrades; backups

[John Holt]

I just sold my G4 Ti 15" 867 with 768 ram and purchased a 15" Ti G4  
1.67 with 1 gig. I really cannot tell a lot of difference in the  
speed but there are some nice features on the newer G4 such as 2 USB  
2.0 ports. All ports are on the side and not in the back. Backlite  
keyboard. Two finger scrolling. I do not think there are any upgrades  
for the 867.  It is still a great computer.
