I just did a search for a coupon code to use when ordering from Crucial. It turned up the one I remembered seeing. It is dated last Sept. Any idea if it is still valid?

You can always go to www.crucial.com/partners to save an extra 5%.

That link doesn't work... I searched for some codes this morning (as I was ordering RAM for a PB)... I came up with nothing... good luck!

Wow, my bad. That link has been good for the last 4 years, at least.

You may also want to look at OWC. A couple months ago they had better pricing on the 1gb memory module than Crucial (even after the coupon).

Yeah OWC has the 1GB stick at $294.99. Its dropped in the past couple months. Ive been using OWC RAM for a while and its of great quality.

I opted to go with the Samsung memory 1gb at $359 since it is said that this is the memory that Apple uses.

Thanks for the info guys. Another question if I may. I have a 17" imac 1ghz and I am wondering if anybody has actually put a gig stick of ram in theirs. I see that transintl's site says that you can. But crucial still says 1 gig total. Just wondering. Thanks.

I believe the coupon is BBUSERGROUP it saves you 5% or something.

FYI... BBUSERGROUP was the right code and it worked for me in late May. Crucial must have deactivated it since. :mad:

Yeah according to MacTracker you are able to put a 1gig stick in the iMac, it should be able to hold 1.5 GB. I say go ahead and put in the stick :)
