These really look very interesting and since mine didn't come with a battery these seem like a good deal as well as a great way to get a as you say powerhouse Lombard going on battery. Actually since I am preparing this one for my wife it probably will never move off the desktop unless I can convince her to let me use it. It's amazing how I got this for myself but since I have let her use it it seems to no longer belongs to me.

Re: Lombard memory
It's nothing. I'm planning on doing the same with my Lombard as soon as I can afford it. However, that Newer Technologies battery upgrade from Other World Computing looks too good to pass up. :) Hopefully, you'll have a portable powerhouse, instead of an extremely light desktop, which is what mine is..

So the price difference, pc66 being more expensive, is based on availability rather than a physical difference or incompatibility? PC100 and PC133 ram will work okay in the Lombard (and Wallstreet and original iMacs), BUT only if it's made according to those Macs' specifications. i.e., not ALL PC100 and PC133 ram will work in those Macs. So be sure to buy memory that is specifically advertised as compatible with those Macs and comes with a free exchange guarantee and lifetime warranty. Solid online stores that sell this ram include OWC (which offers free exchange and lifetime warranty) http://eshop.macsales.com/specials/MailList.cfm and Transinternational (do a web search).

Yes, but it still takes PC100 memory. I have a 256MB low profile PC100 in my Wallstreet's lower slot, and it's not a problem.

The major name brands cost more, often twice as much as the off brand. Lots of people have no problems with the cheaper off brands. Some folks have had problems that required replacements. But I'm sure it's happened with name brands as well, though probably not as often. Name brands often have a lifetime warranty. Off brands may or may not. Then it's up to the dealer for warranty policy (if any). You're best bet is to buy from a well-known and well-respected dealer that knows how to take care of its Mac customers.
