Replacing the MacBook RAM, Hard Drive (Video) and Benchmarks
With the introduction of the Apple MacBook, one of the new features offered to end users is the ability for users to replace the internal hard drive. Typically, Apple laptop hard drive replacement has required the involvement authorized technician in the past.
Both the MacBook's RAM and Hard Drive are accessible through a panel under the battery and the process has been detailed in this Video from MacWorld.
MacWorld also provides the first benchmarks of the new MacBook, comparing it to the G4 iBooks it replaces as well as the current MacBook Pro and iMac.

Cool. Makes it look very, very easy. :)
EDIT: Benchmarks look great too, but I'd go for MBP for looks and graphics.

I didn't think upgrading RAM could get much easier than it was in the Powerbook and iBook G4s. Little stuff like this is one of the many reasons I love Apple.

Are all those apps Universal? Why even bother comparing PS in Rosetta on an Intel vs. native on a G4?

I don't know about all of them but PS is not universal. I repeat not universal.

I want to know why a 2GHz Core Duo iMac and a 2GHz Core Duo MacBook don't give the same results? The only thing different about them is the hard drive speed and that certainly shouldn't impact these tests enough to skew the results that far.
EDIT: Except the Zip file creation and the graphics test, I'd see that as obvious.
