I normally order my memory from Crucial, but the price for a 1Gb stick of memory for the MBP has risen in the past few weeks from £75 to £125!

So I ordered from one of Kingston's authorised resellers for just under £100, only to get an e-mail back saying that Kingston are out of stock, and Kingston don't have a lead time for when the part will be available, so my order has been cancelled!

So are there any UK sites that are doing a stick of 1Gb of memory for the MBP at less than Crucial prices?

Have you bought RAM from Orca Logic before? Because I need more RAM for my Core Duo, and I too was put off by the sudden increase in prices by crucial, I mean £50 is pretty steep. Anyway, wondering about the quality of this Orca Logic RAM due to the low price.
