I have one, but it is not lying around collecting dust. I will sell it for $80. It is the high grade PC133 low density type, not dusty! It is 2-2-2.

Beware, the stuff for sale on eBay for 40-50 is high density and will not work with most older hardware.

high density? you lost me?

I have bought much ram on ebay (my dual 2.5 is stuffed with it) and have never had a problem, pc100 or pc133 is pretty much what it says it is (barring different physical types, SODIMMS vs DIMMS vs ECC)

That is totally not right about PC133 or PC100, but it is mostly true about DDR memory. Check out this page from 1st Choice Memory:

http://www.1stchoicememory.com/page17.html

Notice the link at the bottom for low density memory. There is a big difference if you stick it in the wrong system, it just will not work. Now on DDR memory, there is still no "low density" or "high density" chip differences, but there may be one day soon.

I also have 1 (not lying around) that I could let go for around $80.
