The 11R will work just fine as a sole interface - that's what I use on the system in my sig file. Been working no problem for 2 1/2 years.
Thank you for your reply.

I'm just put my order in for no ram upgrade (I can do it for significantly less) and an ssd. It's worth the extra $40 (since the ssd's i found run $150-160 and apple wants $200)to not void the warranty, and I'll upgrade the ram myself.

I'm really grateful for responses to my thread, and I'm looking forward to hanging around here in the future.

Rock on my friends,

Dobb
