Now lets clear up some misconceptions:
As long as you buy buffered ram and said upgrade doesn't need drivers (like video cards) because if you don't buy it FOR MAC they refuse to give you the proper drivers to use them. And don't think you can pirate these, they litterally modify the firmware of the motherboards to deny cards that don't have proper GPU firmware.
Except when they release a service pack and declare that it is worth 200$ (lol snow leopards)
UNLESS they are said parts that literally will be denied by the motherboard.
