8GB RAM. Next-up: upgrade to a SSD.
I’d be stupid not to upgrade. I can still get $270 from my 32GB iPhone 3GS on Gazelle.com and have my new 32GB phone mostly paid for.
PSP GO UMD conversion not happening for 'legal reasons'
Well looks like I’m not going to be in any rush to upgrade from my old PSP 1000 and UMD games unless I can sell it for a reasonable amount. The high price tag was already killing most of my hype for the new handheld. “Good job” Sony… [via destructoid.com]

MacBook Hard Drive Upgrade = Free PS3 HDD Upgrade & External Drive
I’m thinking about upgrading my MacBook Pro from it’s stock 320 GB hard drive to 500 GB, to make more room for my Windows gaming partition. The pleasant side effect of this upgrade is a free upgrade for my PS3 and a bonus 80GB external drive.
This round of upgrades would cost me around $130 (or less) to buy the 500 GB 2.5” SATA hard drive and a 2.5” SATA external enclosure.
Since the PS3 also uses 2.5” SATA drives; after cloning my Mac’s system onto 500 GB drive (via the external enclosure) I’ll put the Mac’s old 320 GB hard drive into my PS3. As a bonus I’ll make my PS3’s old 80 GB into an external drive with the enclosure.
Note: The only complication will be making a backup of my PS3’s files (because of DRM). I plan to use another external drive formatted to FAT32 to backup my PS3 files before the upgrade. Any other PS3 compatible flash memory will also work.
iTunes Plus upgrade now available on a per track basis
Finally! Now you don’t have to pay to upgrade that EMO music you were into 4 years ago but now find annoying. Apple has given-in to demand, likely because people weren’t going to pay $50+ depending on how much music they had bought on iTunes in the past.

iTunes keeps adding DRM free music. Yesterday it was $55.47 to upgrade 215 (available) songs I bought on iTunes and I’m sure there will be more added. Thankfully I stopped buying DRM music quite a while ago.
