    crucial wants just over 200$ for a gig stick of tested ram for my hp zv5000t. What brand/model gig sticks have you guys used? Or know that would work with this laptop?

    Ive checked zipzoomfly, and tigerdirect and didnt find much.

    thanks :)

    Check www.newegg.com they have a gig of Kingmax pc2700 SODIMM for about $134. It should work with the zv5000 and has gotten great reviews:
