    I am probably getting an 8600 with 256 mb

    I looked at Dell's prices in initial setup is ridiculous and on the side it isn't too bad.

    But I have looked around and was wondering on any complaints behind Crucial 512 mb stick??? or is there a better option???

    I have had nothing wrong with crucial ram, they are generally one of the most reliable manufacturers out there.

    I suggest ordering from www.newegg.com.

    ewiz.com has the best prices, even better than newegg. I ordered some thermal compound from them before and it came in 3 days.

    GPU cooling (100°C->75°C)* Inspiron 8600 * 1.8ghz Pentium M * 128 MB Radeon 9600 Pro Turbo (337/242 -> 400/300) * 2x256 MB DDR2700 SDRAM * Aquamark 3: 24058 * 3DMark'03: 3404 * 3DMark'01 SE: 13120
