Upgrade paths

RAM

1.5 GB (512 MB onboard + 1 GB PC2700 SO-DIMM) · Single slot under the keyboard, beneath the AirPort Extreme card. 512 MB is soldered, so one 1 GB module maxes it out.

~$25

EASY

storage

SSD via 2.5" IDE adapter · Infamous full teardown, dozens of screws, top case and shielding must come off.

~$40

HARD

battery

50 Wh removable pack · Coin-slot latch on the underside, swaps in seconds. Fresh cells are the usual fix for tired examples.
