I’m now sporting 1 gigabyte of memory in my Thinkpad. It was a lot cheaper than I expected; the last time I was shopping for laptop RAM it was mostly proprietary, super-expensive stuff. The gig I just bought only cost $220 before tax.
(Drool) Sweet, Adam. What else can I say?
I did the same thing when I bought my Dell. 1Gig is MUCH cheaper when you buy it from a third party. One thing I have learned is that 1Gig on a Compaq (shared memory) is WAY different than it is on a Dell (NOT shared memory).

It's been almost three years since I bought the gig that's in my ThinkPad, but I think it only cost me about $160 back then. No tax, no shipping. RAM is cheap when you don't buy it *with* your laptop. You just have to love those third parties that sell compatible memory.
