The key is, which Mushkin?
Some people have reported problems, some have reported they work.
You should know that this (991504) is not the memory that Mushkin guarantees is Mac compatible.
That memory is 971504a, and is $200.00 the pair at the vendor you linked to.
So you are on your own as regards compatibiluty on the linked pair for $181 (less $20 mail in rebate.)
OTOH you could check around for other Canadian sources of guaranteed-compatible Mac RAM for a lower price than that....
Thanks

such as CanadaRAM.com?
By the way, your website has some serious usability issues. I walked away because it was taking too much effort to find and understand pricing for MacBook RAM. Your product pages should be designed in a list format, rather than a paragraph/tabular format. Prices are all out of alignment, requiring me to scan all over the place and you don't always list manufacturer names or part numbers (why would I purchase something I know nothing about?).
I'm sorry, but your website is not professional enough to convince me that your company is a reliable place to make a web-based purchase from.

If you buy from Mushkin directly, you can probably get what you want for your machine with less trouble. They have a feature that's called "perfect match" memory, and it's selected by your SYSTEM so you don't have to keep track of the minute details of RAM specs to get the right part. They also have a lifetime warranty on RAM you haven't screwed up, physically broken, or otherwise messed with.
I haven't bought from them for a long time, nor ever for a Mac, but my experience with them was good.

Good to hear. Are you using Apple spec, or generic?

I bought those Mushkin RAM from NCIX several months ago. They've been working well on my MacBook since. Anything over the stock config is an improvement.
