I have to use an application for work that isn't supported in Mt. Lion and my 2008 Macbook doesn't have enough ram for Lion. Should I update ram or get a new computer?

So, it would be a stretch to buy a new computer, but I could if I needed to. The fan on this computer gets a little loud and the computer will sometimes get hot, but it works fine. I don't want to invest in a computer that doesn't have long to live, but I also don't want to buy a new computer when I have a perfectly good one... Suggestions?
The application is Sookasa.

A loud fan could indicate a hardware issue which could only get worse when tampering with the RAM.
Backup your data.
What is the application, and version of application?  Perhaps we can find something that works with your operating system?   Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to tell us your existing operating system.
