How much does a 1 GB stick of RAM go for (15" PB Aluminum)?

[Gherkin]

Yes. How much?

 

[CanadaRAM]

Yes. How much?

This'll depend where you buy it from
Data Memory Systems https://www.datamem.com/AMM12.asp US$155 (Infineon) or US$169 (Samsung)
Crucial http://www.crucial.com/store/listpa...werBook+G4+1.5GHz+(15-inch+Display)&submit=Go
US$377 (note: the PC generic Crucial SODIMM is not the same as the Apple compatible one)
Apple US$500

 

[Gherkin]

so is there any reason not to go with Samsung over Crucial?

Samsung is top quality. I have bought memory from both Crucial and DMS for my PB, and have had not issues with RAM from either vendor. However, having said that, I'll be buying RAM from DMS from now on. Their prices are way better than Crucial, and their service is great, too.
