Re: [APML] Memory Upgrade



Be VERY, VERY careful with Fry's.  The reason their prices are so low is
that they deal mostly in rejects, company over runs, and manufactures
repairs.  Most of their stuff comes without packaging and documentation.  I
know of a recent scenario where an individual purchased both a modem and
memory.  Neither one worked.  The memory was replaced and the second stick
did not work.  At least they will refund your money but you would not want
to have to make another trip because of that.
