I am going to buy a new macbook after MWSF or a new slimbook if such things is released. I want at least 2 gigs of ram, where is the best place to buy quality that will work with my new machine?

18004memory.com is awesome. I've used them for years and they always have really good prices.

But if you buy two (no rebate on the second) and add shipping, it comes to $70.

I really like Memory upgrades, flash media, and usb storage at Crucial.com however I had no idea Newegg was so cheep. Is there a quality difference between the two? If not, i'm kinda pissed I didn't get mine from Newegg!
