Warm Deal on 512MB PC2100 DDR RAM?

I would spend $10 more and get some from newegg.com.. Instead of a crappy online retailer🙂 Just my opinion.
 
I looked at the Muskin one but the $129 price is for the basic one. They quote "Great solution for the budget machine." I spoke w/ them on the phone and they recommend the next one up which is $159.

 
I bought the basic Mushkin last week. I do not overclock anything, and it works great! Im running an XP 1800 + CPU and the memory is great so far.
 
When thney charge $18 shipping, that means that if they ship dead ram, it will cost you another $18 plus return postage to get things right. No, make that $18+ x however many bad ram sticks they think they can send you!

Stay away from anyone who charges $3-4X what it's worth for shipping. There's a good reason they do that and it is never a benefit to you.

At the least it is misleading and that means their honesty and reliability are in question. Do you really want to deal with someone like that???

 
Does anybody know how good Samsung chips are in the pecking order of memory manufacturers like Mushkin, Infineon, Kingston and all the others. There's so many, and obviously some must be better than others, I just don't know where any of them really stand.

I have 2 generic 256 meg sticks in my machine right now - one has Micron chips, the other one is Samsung. Both are runnning fine at 140FSB, CAS2. Got those 2 and a 128 meg Samsung stick for $95 from the FS/FT forum. I would look there first if I were you, way better than plonking down almost $160 for something that might turn out to be total cr*p.
