For those of you that got in on the PNY deal (like me although I had to call over 30 times to get it, persistence pays off) I later found out when I got the ram that the CS is not the same as the PC that onvia sells. The CS uses highquality infineon cas2 pc133+ chips :) So basically staples got ripped even harder.

I had a question regarding doing PM. So do you call up Staple's 1800 number for their web site, then ask them to PM onvia? Do they then update your basket so when you login, that your basket is now filled? I haven't done a PM w/ any CSR's yet..

Once this is completed, I'm assuming you simply use the coupon, and your set to go?

Also, will this dimm work in my Asus P2B? I have a P2/300 overclocked to 467. Thanks in advance...

You will end up buying the memory on the phone. You can email them and do a pricematch if you want to order online for some reason. You then just give them the coupon code after they confirm the pricematch. It turns out you can order some more items and use multiple coupons. I posted that site before. An easy experience.

Sorry, I don't think the memory will work with your ASUS P2B. I went to crucial.com and verified that the memory would work with my motherboard. The 256MB dimms that they have listed are all PC100. They don't have any PC133's listed, so I would assume that it won't work. You may want to call crucial.
