I always buy directly from Crucial. Never had any issues with them. I don't know anything about memory.com.
I started out with nothing & I've still got most of it left M60 VP160 QS8 EP350 M22 VP100 Algonquins

Well... My GF's computer that she bought to years ago has only been running on 512mb of RAM this whole time.
I upgraded it to 4 GB of ram (4, 1 gig chips) and, WOW... what a difference.

I always go with crucial, however one of the two 2GB ram sticks I bought for my dell notebook was bad, don't know if this led to file corruption that caused me to have to revert to factory state, next I have to see if they will back up their product. I suppose all companies produce some duds.

I just called and uppded my internet to the 12MB download speed version. They claimed my upload speed would only be 768 kb/s but I just did a speed test at Speakeasy.net and It said my upload speed is 3.7 megs / sec.
Time to go play some video games now!

Lucky dog! I'm stuck with 1.3 mbit download speed (suburb speed you might say). I had 5 mb for a while with Charter but the modem and router would always lose their handshake and have to be rebooted and the service was always going offline sometimes for more than a day at a time, you can't have that. With att and wireless gateway (integrated modem/router) it's hugely reliable even if only minimal in terms of dsl speed.

Gah. Wish I could get faster DSL. I'm willing to pay for it, but AT&T doesn't want to bother with my neighborhood.
