Yesterday the memory upgrade for my laptop arrived and I installed it as soon as I got home, taking it from 2GB to 4GB. Fortunately, upgrading the memory on an MBP is fairly easy, only requiring the removal of three standard screws underneath the battery.
It was mainly meant for a (now postponed) trip so I could use VMware Fusion effectively, but the difference was immediately noticeable when I went to fire up WoW as well. Normally, running WoW on my laptop grinds and chugs and stutters a lot, mainly because I always have Firefox open as well, and together the two just use up too much memory. Now though, it’s smooth as silk, with WoW loading only a little bit slower than it does on my desktop machine.
