Hi guys and gals,
The general consensus on this here forum is that Ramjet and Crusial.com have the best success rate with their ram modules. Was wondering though, if anyone has ever tried http://macramdirect.com/powerbook.html ....They have a life time warranty and seemingly deal mostly with Mac. Some folks on this forum have had bad experiences with Omni Ram, but there's no mention of Mac Ram Direct. Wanna get the best ram for my Alum. Powerbook G4 / 1.25Ghz, but I think that the AppleStore price is absolutely outrageous. I recently purchased 1GB of Corsair Ram at Microcenter, which I've read has high praise, but as it turns out, is not tested for Macs. Sure enough, did not work, so now I'm at a stand still and a bit wary. Any input would be greatly appreciated and most helpful. Nels |

Never buy mac non tested RAM if you're in a hurry, seemingly spec compliant modules may not work perfectly or even not at all (giving a sad mac/black screen/void in nothingness). I can't tell upon the sources you give, unfortunately (last ram purchase was 2 years ago and on ebay for PC 133 for PC RAM, 4 modules bought, 2 working, resold the other 2).
