The 512 is 67 quid on www.crucial.com/uk but ii may be getting a stick of a forum for 40 ish !

I generally leave mine asleep over night so its ready for me to check emails etc b4 work in the morning !

I got the 12 inch PB, because it has more connection options (like the PCMCIA slot), a bigger screen, and a faster processor. Ok, it may be slightly bulkier, but I can live with that, the 17 inch would be too big for me.
So far, initial impressions are good, built quality also. The keyboard's pretty good, the backlight at darker times is a bonus and well implemented (maybe less for the Function keys).

I do have to get used to OS X, as this is my first venture into the world of Apples. I'll write more about it soon, I'm away from home atm and don't have an internet connection for the next two weeks.
If you have any questions, just shoot.
