    Last year in June a 128 meg PC100 DIMM module was $145, I bought one yesterday for $22, PC133 was $20!!! . If you are planning to upgrade to Windows 2000 or XP, now would be a good time. Buy name brand with a lifetime warranty, not generic, it will be better quality. Fill up your motherboard with as much as it will support, you won't be sorry.

    I just bought 2x 256 MB 133 Apacer for less than I bought 2x 128 generic some six months ago.
    And found a non-registered Win2K pro that the owner wants to change for my Agfa snapscan.

    Like I try not to forget:

    Having remembered Raffon's advice, I've just bought 2 x 256MB branded PC133 for £58 (£29 each) and upgraded from 128MB to 640MB at one fell swoop! My copy of Win2K Pro is on its way at £52.87 (special price for being a teacher, lucky me!), so what's that, £110.87 (about $164) for the lot?

    To which I can only add:

    Hmmmm. I'm about to buy a new Dell 8200. They had an offer of a $200 rebate or a free memory upgrade.

    From what you have just told me, I'll get the rebate and add 5GB of RAM [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
