just thought i should provide an update in case any of you try this.
scratch that 8gb of ram on early '08 models. the system recognizes 8gb and it will allow you to use all of it, but once you hit 8gb the system becomes VERY unstable.
i'm swapping out one of the 4gb sticks for a 2gb (which i've read people can run without any problems). i have one 4gb stick and 1 1gb stick right now for a total of 5gb and the system maxes out fine.
anyway, just don't want to be responsible for anyone trying 8gb on account of me and running into problems! :)
