Dear All

Apologies for an off-topic query but I�m looking for old PC RAM someone
might have that they�re willing to sell or at least know of a decent vendor.

A little while ago, I bought a second hand PC as a general purpose family
machine. It came with a 2.4Ghz processor but only 512Mb RAM.

A little digging revealed the mother board can handle up to 2Gb RAM
(utilising 2 slots) but I�m restricted to DDRPC2700 or DDRPC3200.

To date, the few vendors who do offer this do so at price that seems silly
compared to how much I paid for the machine (about �50 for the PC while the
RAM is quoted at �40 - �50).

If anyone has something like this they�re willing to part with at a nice
price or know of a good vendor, I�d really appreciate it

Mind you, I could very well somewhat na�ve in my expectations in which case
you can tell me to go whistle.

I noticed play.com have their own brand 1GB PC2700 DDR 333Mhz 184pin DIMM on sale for £16.99, although I think the sale might end today. That is a quarter of what I used to pay for DDR400 when it was current, although I used to buy 256 or 512 MB DIMMS, as there was always a premium on the 1gig ones. The only spare I have is 256MB.
