    shouldn't it be DDR3 and @ ~1066Mhz? do i have DDR2 RAM in my notebook?

    **EDIT** It looks like that's correct, and that dual channel = 2x that reading per second?

    Your RAM is most likely DDR3 @ 1333MHz, and given that it is DDR (double data rate) memory, it shows the base clock of 667 -- multiplied by 2 is roughly 1333MHz
