Adding 4 gig ram

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

i have been in electronics for over 22 years. my soldering is perfect.

i understand the ram in a macbook air is soldered. i would like to replace the 2 gig chips with 4 gig or even 8 gig, will the macbook air hardware recognize the additional memory?

if yes, other than warrenty issues; why would ifixit team not take a chance to un-solder the chips?
