Are there 256MB PC133 CL2 SODIMM modules that use 32M x 8 chips???

I found some on eBay that say they use 32M x 8 chips, but every module on Pricewatch and Crucial use 32M x 64

I did the math, 32Mbits x 64 = 256MB
32Mbits x 8 = 32MB

Sodimms have multiple chips. I believe that Crucial and pricewatch are referring to sodimm geometry when they say "32M x 64" and not chip size. A sodimm can have 8 chips so having 8x32Mx8 = 256MB

LOL @ Chris

Yes it's for me Inspiron 8100 :)

Zeph: Ok I see. I just wanted to know if someone was running a scam on eBay.
