    1) 4GB, though you will not be able to use all 4GB without a 64bit OS.
    2) Only 667MHz speeds, so don't waste your money on 800MHz.
    3) Anyone with a lifetime warranty not from Transcend...see the best ones at the RAM Deals thread (Corsair, Kingston, OCZ, etc).

    Some of the PC6400 modules run at CL = 4 at 667MHz. See the remarks for this OCZ memory.

    Your choice, but I would tend to get the OCZ since it will run at full speed in the next generation of notebooks (except those which use DDR-3). However, what is the cost difference?

    Kingston 94,90€, OCZ 84.90 €, so maybe i should get the OCZ then and it will also be litte bit faster than my kingston that also is 800mhz but operating @ 667, 5-5-5-15...
