I said in another post that I would let you all know how this transaction
worked out.

1) Ordered the memory (2@256MB) last Thursday 4/18/02
2)Per the customer rep I talked it normally takes a couple of days to get in
specials orders.
3)Today, Tuesday 4/23/02 the package was waiting when I got home.
4)Installed both sticks, booted up and the system is showing the full 512MB.

Answers to the questions asked:
Yes, the items ordered was what was shipped
Yes, the items ordered worked
Yes, the items were shipped in a timely manner and arrived undamaged
Yes, my charge card was debited the correct amount

Would I order from them again? That all depends on the factors involved,
best price, immediate need or just needed for something in the future.

I would say that I am happy with the service and the product. Now if I can
only get my old Ford running as good as this RaQ4 {:-)
