    Pretty good deal, pretty sure you can get that for like $45 if you wait for a rebate.

    You basically need to be checking and buy at the right time. Rebates for memory come up pretty often on Newegg. Also check frys.com. They have insane deals on memory some times, but you need to act quickly, since they sell out so quick. Prices on DDR2 laptop memory are dropping like crazy since DDR3 is out and is being used.

    Here is some memory at newegg right now that is about $48 dollar with rebate and free shipping(has lifetime warranty - make sure to check for that in any brand ram you get) -> PNY memory

    PS - My 1100th post yah! I have no life yah!!! :(
