    @jarlaxle: I'd recommend OCZ. I've had it in my laptop for a while now, and it seems to perform well.

    This is where I saw they were 240 pin http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8986332&type=product&id=1218005634725.

    Guess I should have known better than to trust Best Buy. ...oh well. Looks like its too late to cancel my order cause online its already shipped.

    I'm reconsidering upgrading from 2GB to 3GB now that prices are so low. I really don't want to have to deal with a mail in rebate, so this is the best deal I could find.

    OCZ 2GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5400) Laptop Memory: $21.99 + $3.99 S&H

    Can someone PLEASE find me a better deal? With MIRs you could get a 4GB kit for less!

    P.S. Has to be PC2 5300 or 5400, and above 667 will be downclocked to 667 anyways.

    I'm hoping soon that they'll just have AT LEAST 2gig stick for $15 deal. I think I'll even spend $20 exactly..

    Also, I'm using 32 bit windows xp so anything more than 3 gigs won't do anything, right?

    What kinda' video card do you have? You could get potentially 3.5 GB out of 4 GB Physical Memory installed, depending on what other hardware you have. If you have a newer computer, chances are it'll be closer to 3.25 GB, however.

    I have a 8600m GS which uses up to 1gb of turbo cache.

    i've been waiting for a deal like this: http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/11287

    but, I don't think I'll ever see this again, lol. Dell ended up canceling orders on this one (including mine) and that pissed me off. If 3.5 gigs are useful, then I could just get this:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231135

    That's $20 a stick w/o any rebate. I dunno whether to get this or wait for a deal on a single 2gb stick for a few weeks.
