I don't believe an early 2008 MBP can support 8 GB of RAM. 90% sure that the max is 4 GB. You can look up your model here and find out for sure: http://crucial.com
I would recommend a hard drive upgrade though. Right now the 500GB Seagate (SATA, 7200 RPM, 16 MB cache) is decently priced. Have a look on Amazon. And I think in the US the 750 GB version is also available now. If you still have your original drive you probably only have 200 GB on your laptop so this upgrade would more than double your space!
8 GB of RAM would be great, but I don't think it's possible on that model. Adding more hard drive space would at least increase the space available for your virtual memory. And you know... More space is more space.
