Dropping more RAM in a 27" iMac is a piece of cake. Seriously. If you can insert an SD card into your camera, you can upgrade your RAM. It takes maybe 2 minutes. Go to crucial.com and run their Scanner program. It will scan your system and tell you what you have currently (including how many RAM chips and how many open slots you have) and then it will give you the options for various upgrades. I just picked a random 27" iMac and 8GB of RAM is $52. If you have a fairly new one, it should take 16GB.
