Wow...I was buying memory from memory4less back in the mid-90's during my first real IT gig. Didn't know they were still kicking.

OTO, I thought I found a better source (because of price) in http://www.memory4less.com/ ... I tried them a few times, but 2 out of 3 orders they sent me memory that didn't work, even though the memory selector specified memory for my exact system. They made it right every time, but it wasn't worth the hassle. I went back to crucial and haven't looked back. As for other system components, my favorite site of all time is http://shopper.cnet.com If you know your part number, plug it in there, and you get a whole list of shops online that provide the price, along with total for shipping. Sometimes Newegg has the best price, sometimes they don't. If I feel like the shop with the lowest price is sketchy, I move to the next lowest price until I find one I'm comfortable with. I've used the site for about 10 years as well, and have never been burned by any of the vendors that I've found through them. If you don't care about having new stuff, then http://www.serversuppply.com <http://www.serversuppply.com/> is good as well. Jonathan L.

I usually just order whatever's cheaper, from a name brand I trust, and has a lifetime warranty. Sometimes its Kingston, sometimes Crucial, sometimes PNY. Amoung the big names, they're all pretty similar. Lifetime warranty, product select on website, etc. Crucial's website has an annoying tendency to come up with P/N's none of their resellers have ever heard of before, I've noticed. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ________________________________ Any medical information contained in this electronic message is CONFIDENTIAL and privileged.
