16GB option on Amazon? Is it possible that Amazon will sell the 16GB RAM option for the new MacBook Pro with Retina Display? Normally, you could upgrade the RAM yourself, but this is like the Air with the on-board memory; it cannot be upgraded by the user. I'd like to buy on Amazon, but I'd really like to spend the extra dough and get twice the memory too. 16GB option on Amazon?

The 16gb is only available on BTO models and amazon unfortunately does not offer these options on their site; only the stock options.

Actually, up until a couple of days ago on Apples iMac 20" Customize your Mac page, it said in the learn more link under RAM to 'choose the 1x1GB stick if you plan on upgrading later' or something like that. I emailed them... in a hopeless attempt to get them to actually add the option but all they did was removed that part in the learn more section :(

Here is the CORRECT answer...Apple sells up to 8GB installed, via two 4GB cards. You can remove those cards and replace them with two 8GB cards, giving you 16GB. The OS works great with them. I've used Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, and now Yosemite. You cannot go higher than 16GB because the processors in that model can't use more than 16GB.BTW, I bought my MacBook Pro with 4GB installed, and it cost me less to buy my own 16GB than it would have had I bought 8GB from Apple. Apple charges a premium for memory for no good reason. They use standard memory in all their devices. My MacBook came with Samsung memory installed, which is nothing special, believe me.

The Mini is very popular for this purpose. Several friends use them (even the previous version) and love them. I'm planning to buy one myself in the next few weeks. I get full 1080p when attaching my MacBook, so I expect no different from the Mini. But I would get it with 2 GB of RAM (you can add it later or order direct from Apple with the RAM upgrade as a build-to-order option).

Use an app called Mactracker. It will tell you what type of RAM and how much you MacBook can actually use, in many cases it's a total of 8GB RAM even if Apple state 4GB. I installed 2x 4GB sticks into a MacBook and it was perfect. So chances are yours will as well. But use Mactracker and look at memory to see specs and maximum ammount of RAM that can be recognised.

In Macbook Air, the RAM modules are soldered to the motherboard. This means, you cannot replace/change/upgrade your available ram. The only way to do that is to buy a new Macbook Air. The same happens with MacbookPro Retina.

MacBook Pro with Retina display comes standard with 8GB of 1866MHz memory. Please note that the memory is built into the computer, so if you think you may need more memory in the future, it is important to upgrade at the time of purchase.

Unfortunately, you can only purchase the versions they sell online. I called Amazon.com Reps and confirmed they don't customized Macbook Pros.

Yep, amazon only carries the generic versions. Dont think Bestbuy will do it either, I tried and they only carry the generic ones too. If you want 16gigs of ram you will have to order it from Apple.

That's one of my favorite MacBook Pro models! Nickname is "Glossy". Yes, that is the correct RAM type and speed, but the A1150 only supports 2GB of RAM. If you install 4GB, it will not recognize the additional memory. This is the second generation of Intel Macs, and the memory addressing is limited by the processor and the logic board. It's also a 32-bit processor, so you're going to be limited in your upgrading options (both software and hardware) going forward. If you are looking to speed this computer up, you might consider upgrading the Hard Drive to a solid state drive. It isn't as fast as RAM, but it will minimize the "spinning colored wheel" you're probably getting when launching apps or browsing the internet. You can get a small SSD for &lt;$100. Installation is tricky if you've never done it before, so you might be springing for labor. Hope that helps.

nope, the retina macbook pros have soldered ram, there is no way to upgrade.

No, this is desktop memory for desktop systems, The MacBook Air memory can not be upgraded, it is soldered into the motherboard, Apple way of forcing you to over pay for memory when you buy and configure the MacBook Air and other laptops they sell.

This is not one of the base configurations for the MacBook Air, and thus Amazon.com won't offer it (it has never offered more than base configurations in the past). If you would like 8 GB of RAM in your Air, the most popular options is to order it from the Apple Store: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/macbook_air/selectI understand that B&H; may offer some 8 GB configurations, but you're guaranteed to get exactly what you want if you order it from the online Apple Store. That's what I did for mine - I have the 13"/i5/8 GB RAM/256 GB SSD configuration.

I don't know. My advice below.1) click on the apple logo on the top left corner of your menu bar, select about this Mac, then record the info from the Memory, which should have something such as 8GB, 1600 mhz, DDR3. 2. go to support.apple.com web site to find out what your exact model MBP you have and see if it has the 67.6mm x 30 mm ( 1.18 inch ) 204 pin slot which this Kingston 8GB RAM fits. 3. The Kingston 8GB RAM has a 1600 MHZ speed, and if the specs on your computer is not 1600MHz, you may want to go to the Mac Forum on line and find out if anyone have tried installing this RAM on the same model MBP that you have to be sure that it performs okay before you buy this RAM.

Why do you say that? It is the 13.3 inch Retina Display MacBook Pro. There actually is NO newer version out there than this. Unless you are talking about the upgraded Ram or processor? This is the "Newest" Version of this particular combination of RAM, Processor, and Storage.
