I usually order extra RAM from OWC (www.macsales.com). It is cheaper  
than Apple and they have a lifetime guarantee. I recently bought 2GB  
of ram for my new MacBook from Newegg (www.newegg.com) for even less.  
It is generic RAM which I normally wouldn't recommend, but if money  
is tight you might be willing to take the risk I did. You can  
probably even find a good deal on Kingston memory there too.
