I've just bought a 12" Powerbook along with 512mb of extra RAM. Either I have bad RAM or it's not going into the slot properly. The powerbook is freezing when I start up. How hard should I push the memory into the slot? It doesn't look all the way in but I cant push it any further. Any advice?

There's is a section for memory!
And you may want to boot from the diagnose disk (Apple Hardware Diagnose or something is its label)!
