I am looking to get more memory for my PowerBook G4 667 DVI model and ran across this on eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=11151

I've never heard of this company, yet their feedback is incredible and they still offer the full lifetime warranty as all other makers for less money ($214 for 2x512's). Of course, they claim to be the greatest...

What do you think? Go for it?

Wow! 100% from 1609 feedbacks. Seems almost unnatural to be that "perfect". I don't know. Seems impressive though.

No kidding...they also have a 30-day return policy, no questions asked if I am not happy...

Tempting.

doesnt seem that cheap to me. you can get one 512 meg generic ram for around 90-100, and they are selling 2 512s for 200, so it sounds normal, not cheap

To clarify, the deal is for (2) 512 MB chips...not a single 1GB chip...sorry for any confusion...

**UPDATE**

Well, I received the memory already (damn fast shipping) and I must say, I am highly impressed of both the company and the performance of their RAM chips....I would highly, highly recommend them if anybody is interested. I know they are big players on both eBay and their company Web-site....

Panther got that much more faster today going from 512MB to 1GB in a matter of a few seconds...
