    Looks like a pretty good deal. You can get the same sort of deal from Newegg or Frys though. Depends which you trust more. The seller seems trustworthy.

    I wouldn't do it. The RAM isn't a good brand. For around the same price buy some good Corsiar, Kingston, or OCZ RAM from newegg or zipzoomfly.

    Well the price is good, but it's not brand name like Corsair. You can get two sticks of Corsair for about the same amount on newegg, and I think they will run faster.

    Check this out first, One Day Sale from Newegg.com. It seems OK to me, I am thinking about buying two of this:

    Transcend 1GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM Notebook Memory

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820208037

    $79.99 (With $10 Mail-in Rebate, $69.99)

    And I will sell current RAM sticks which came from DELL. What do you think is the best way? Ebay?
