Call the place where you bought the memory and try to return it or ask for an exchange that will work with your Lombard. If they can't provide you with a replacement for your Lombard, ask for a refund. Then, go to one of the places that sell guaranteed memory for Apple laptops. I've been dealing with Data Memory Systems <http://www.datamem.com/> and never had any problem with their memory. Plus, they had very good prices. I'm not affiliated in any way with them, just a past satisfied customer. -Laurent. -- ======================================================================== Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA ************************ Usual disclaimers apply *********************** -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
