    Whoa, that IS a great deal - too bad I only need just another 2GB module, or else I would have ordered. Great find!

    EDIT: Hmm, found this in single-module as well, here. No free shipping though :(

    Midnight sun, at that price, you might as well buy the 4GB kit and then sell the 2nd 2GB SODIMM. I am quite sure you will get more than 30 bucks for it on Ebay.

    I too am impressed by the pricing. In early Jan, the same kit cost 128.99, now its less than 1/2 that!!!

    Yeah over the weekend, I decided to finally upgrade from 3GB to 4GB, and I was shocked to see Crucial has taken the lead in lowering the prices of notebook DDR3. I paid somewhere around $60 for my previously purchased 2GB stick of Crucial DDR3, and now it's barely $30.

    $53 for 4GB is awesome.

    Great price! I will surely be putting this in my Alu-MB! I could always use some extra speed... :D
