A nice guy who knows of my memory issue on my Mac pointed me to this article by Engadget. They are doing a great job documenting problems with the lower memory slot on Mac PowerBooks…….

today we come to find out that another suit could be inbound with an open registration of complaints over what apparently occurs to some users when — of all things — they update to 10.3.9, 10.4.0, and 10.4.1: their PowerBooks’ lower RAM slots go bad. The current operating assumption is that the update actually makes the firmware controller or possibly the chipset get all wonky, which, in turn, may disable the lower memory slot (permanently). Has anyone out there in Engadget-land experienced this issue?

If you have been a victim comment on Engadget’s post.

TUAW also has plenty of people with this problem.
