Sometime in April John Strange assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| www.pricescan.com
| www.mwave.com
| www.newegg.com

i would suggest using crucial.com. bad memory can be a pain in the ars and
you can quickly loose the money you save on return shipping costs and lost
time. while they can be a little more expensive, i've used crucial in the
past and i've been pretty happy with them. also, their tech support is
really good.

| I would suggest trying MWAVE memory, they seem to be compatible with
| Dell laptops, you can call and check and it's much cheaper.  SDRAM isn't
| like making PC3500 DDR timings, so you can get good quality SDRAM now
| for a lot cheaper than what the main manufacturers are chugging out.

| > > > I am running Gentoo on a Dell Inspiron 5000, Pentium 3, 128M RAM. I use

their 256 is 105.99 and the 128 is 39.99.

 "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of
  the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to
  drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship,
  or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the
  people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is
  easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and
  denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country
  to greater danger."
