Bill,

I saw a few folks here recommend going to Crucial, which is a very great
quality source for RAM. But there is another called Kingston, which also
sells very dependable PC products, namely RAM. They have PC2100, on up there
available and it is very typically less expensive than Crucial.

This is the 2100 list, but you can check out all of there products. If you
also can give the name of the maker/model of your MOBO, they will match up
your RAM just fine.
