Sure.  I don't know for a fact, but I'm sure they would.  It is a standard type of RAM that I'm sure has been used in PCs for some time now.

I personally purchase Crucial memory - never had any issues.

RAM may not be available until the MacBook is closer to release time. However, you can go to Crucial's site and they have an easy wallk thru to figure out exactly what type you need. Also it will be expensive to begin with if it isn't already readily available.

I settled on and extra 1 GB of RAM on my G5 eyesight iMac, because the 2 GB module was like 8 times more expensive - like $2000 from Apple and $16000 from other vendors. It has gone down considerably, but the mark up is still incredible. 1 GB is $119, and 2 GB is $899!

MacBook RAM is listed there, btw. Edit: 200-pin.

Yor Protection plan should come with your MacBook Pro. At least that is what I was told by store saleman where I ordered mine.

As for the battery, here is what the warranty actually says under Limitations:

(ix) Consumable parts, such as batteries, except in respect of battery coverage under APP for iPod or unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials and workmanship;

In other words, they will cover it if it is defective when delivered to you. If it's been 'abused' in some way or just run down from use (hence rechargeable), they probably won't replace it for you.

So you get your Macbook Pro shipped out February 15th also?

I certainly hope so! However, I've heard from others that Apple ships to other resellers only after they have fullfilled their own store pre-orders.

The store manager says that shouldn't happen with mine since he ordered it 'CTO' from Apple.  I'll know soon.
