Yes, it has the 6750M in it.
In general, any 204 pin DDR3 SO-DIMMs should work. There is mac-specific memory that has been qualified/certified, and it is about the same price or 5-10% more...

RAM is RAM. As long as you get the right size (laptop or desktop) and type (DDR3 is the most common now) then it doesn't matter. Macs do not use different RAM than machines that boot windows. They...

Pretty good deal then. It gets very confusing with the model numbers for a lot of people, so that probably explains why it gets very little traction on SD.

Macs might utilize specific voltage or timings, but if that's such an issue then you just compare the specs and get RAM with the same timings and voltage as the "apple certified" kind.

Is it still $1599? Or did the price go up or is there a coupon? It says $1699 now for me at least.

Note this model also supports up to 16GB of RAM (2 x 8GB sodimm). This is a fairly expensive upgrade right now but prices are sure to drop in the future.

Hi,

The only thing that worries me about this, I feel that Apple would call the ultra slim 15" a MacBook Air, not a Pro, meaning crappy HD 3000 graphics.
