What the Hell?!! Only 2GB support on Asus F80L???

I have an Asus F80L that was bought last October 26, 2008 and I installed SIW on it. It says it supports 8GB of RAM. Asus, on the other hand, says it's 3GB. Ok. That's fine. I'm happy with only 3GB. But now, some Asus Forum claims it's only 2GB. What the F?

Ok. My Processor is T5450 which is 1.66 Ghz. I have 2GB pre-installed. What to do now? I'll call Asus Philippines tomorrow. What do you think? Should I upgrade additional 1GB RAM or follow the info below.

FYI: Update on F80L series with CPUs: T5450, T3200 , T2390 laptop unit only supports 2GB. DDR2 667 maximum memory... this is also based on GL960 chipset provided by intel, see below for more info:

    Speaking of meatballs, what's the deal with meatball sandwich? How can people eat those? It's ROUND. Trying to bite those in a sandwich is a challenge. It's easier to eat a burger stacked with toppings. :ninja:
