    The second module is under the keyboard. To remove the kb look in the crack between the fn keys and the panel north of it. There are little latches there. press them from left to right with a flat head and prop the keyboard up as you go. It has magnets on the keyboard bottom so you may have to pull a bit. There may also be screws denoted with the letter "k" on the bottom. If you find any on the bottom of the laptop you have to remove them

    I'm not 100% sure, but I think DIMM1 may be the one under the keyboard, and DIMM2 is the one on the bottom of the laptop.

    I think DIMM2 is under the keyboard !

    Well, if there's already a 1GB stick on the bottom of the notebook (and that's DIMM1), then DIMM2 is the one under the keyboard. :)

    To me, at least, it'd make more sense if DIMM1 was under the keyboard and DIMM2 was on the bottom... since having the slot on the bottom would make it much more easily upgradable by the user.
