thanks can't believe i missed that important detail. I don't even know hwy they h ave so many PC2-5300+ types of RAM. PCs, the larger market, barely uses them yet. i once found the right one a while ago, then now i check and i forgot how i got there (i forgot macs use laptop equipment)
ima buy the gig stick now i guess. the first one in that link has a review by a mac user, so i guess it's a safe bet.
edit: i remember coming across this
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Custra...82E16820145012 it used to have like 2 reviews one complaint for mac. now it has tons of complaints on OSX. i'm not poor so ima get the crucial one. thanks
