If you're down to 1 bar, it can be difficult to initiate the connection, but if you go closer to the router and start the connection you'll be able to move away and still use the signal in my experience. What kind of encryption scheme are you using? WPA/WPA2 is better in my experience at longer distances than WEP due to the lower network overhead (WEP is horribly insecure as well).

Any RAM may fail, and even the best memory tests sometimes don't detect failing RAM. Try putting your original RAM back in and see if the freezing goes away. Please, please, please be sure to ground yourself as well as possible when handling the RAM. Keep one hand on the metal frame of your computer. If the original RAM works, but the Crucial RAM seems to cause problems, contact Crucial and request a replacement. Even the best RAM...

Hey folks, Short version: If you have an Early 2009 white Macbook (with the nVidia 9400M integrated video), you may have a defective LCD.

How strong a signal does the Windows laptop indicate? My wife's piece-of-crap Sony laptop is, paradoxically, the king of WiFi reception here. It can connect robustly where our several Mac laptops cannot. I blame the Macs' metal bodies vs. the cheesy plastic of that crashy freezy junky virus-magnet of a Vaio. So it's possible it's a signal issue in your case. I ended up installing a ...

Don't know how much this matters to you but I think that they look cheap. The plastic is really shiny and it looks like it will scratch easily. The black plastic MacBook that I used to own looked better not because of the colour but because the finish on it wasn't shiny. Also the screen on the one I was looking at wasn't anywhere near as bright as the MBP's/airs

You don't have enough free contiguous space in order to split off a partition of that size. Your best bet is to make a Time Machine back up. Then erase your MacBook's disk. After that in Disk Utility make the two partitions the size that you want and them restore Snow Leopard to one. Finally install Leopard on the other partition.

When everything is fixed, put the previous hard drive in place And after this, backup backup backup everything for the future. At this time I don't think you have lost your mother's data.

Try turning the brightness down a bit maybe? The screen on here is far brighter than most anything I've used recently. The refresh is the same as other LCD screens, and you said you used glossy screens, so I doubt that's it. The other thing could be eye strain from the text smoothing perhaps? That can be adjusted in System Preferences-->Appearance
