I got my RAM from 18004memory.com

Good prices and fast shipping. I've used them in the past with no problems at all.

I tend to favor OWC: http://eshop.macsales.com

But also see my PB RAM advice here:

I was thinking of the 15"/17" when I researched that, but it applies to the 12" too--except that you can't change slot 1.

I agree - I found some 512 chips for the 12" that were about $105 - but then I thought, hey crucial has always done me right, and they are QUALITY. An extra 25 bucks for the knowledge that probs down the road won't be due to ram was worth it for me, my CRUCIAL ram arrived today.

Compared to the $270 Apple wanted, even the 'name brand' chips are a bargain.
