been using Ramjet lately especially for PowerBooks. Crucial can't seem=20=

to hold a candle to them on SODIMM DDR for the AlBooks. Standard memory=20=

still seems to be fine from Crucial, but you have to price as each has=20=

their loss leaders. I've all but given up on non-brand name RAM with OS=20=

X.
