The prices on their RAM are insanely cheap. $98.99 for a 1 gig stick for the Mac mini, and about 10 bucks more for a stick of 512 for the Powerbook. I'd like to hear from someone with experience ordering from them. The low price of the RAM tells me that either: A) It's sub-par quality and will screw up my Macs, or B) the web site is a complete scam.

And yes, I know about Crucial and the peace of mind I would get ordering from them, but I'm about to get married so I'm trying to pinch every penny right now.

I used a link from DealRam: http://www.omnitechnologies.biz/cgi-bin/wcatalog/cp-app.cgi?pg=prod&ref=macminig41gbddrov&cat=2&catstr=

That one should show up as $98.99 or something like that.

I know they are not a scam site. The worst I would say can happen is the RAM you get is bad and you have to go through the trouble of returning it.

They say it works for the iMac and their ebay ratings are good. I would also like to hear some experiences with these rams.
