You want to remember that not all RAM is created equal. Cheap RAM is everywhere, but quality RAM is hard to find. I suggest:

crucial http://crucial.com

or

viking http://www.vikingcomponents.com/

It's not the cheapest RAM, but nothing is more frustrating than cheap, bad RAM. Good luck...

You might also want to check out eBay. I know it can be a bit risky, but it can be worth it. I managed to pick up a brand new 512 stick for my PB for only $AU90. Just check the seller's feedback and ratings and you should be fine.

I just found him a listing for 1 GB Crucial PC 2700 CAS 2.5 DIMM at
Newegg for $108.00

All the Apple owners responding in review are positive.

This is a fantastic price on Crucial RAM

I second datamem.com. I bought 1 gb ram the other day and put it in yesterday. Everything's running great and it only cost me $104.00 plus $7.00 s&h. I don't know why yours should cost more but maybe 12" pb's just do for some reason. Anyway they guarantee their products, plus guarantee they will fit in your new PB. Awesome!

You can never have too many RAM threads. 🙄
