    comes up at £28.93 excluding VAT (and delivery) for me and you have to spend £30 excluding delivery and VAT to get the google checkout discount.

    Have they changed the price since you posted it?

    just a quick point, you really need to think about they system you are matching your ram to, if its a celleron or low end amd no probs but slow ram on a fast cpu is almost as wastefull as thoughs low end graphics cards with 512 megs with no way of using it all.

    that said good find im sure there are plenty of people oth ther who could benifit from more ram regardless of the speed.

    It is; ram at this speed is more than adequate for 90% of users.

    To get the Google discount you have to spend £30 INCLUDING VAT and EXCLUDING delivery so it is applicable for the £10 off.

    Wow you're an absolute gem there mate.

    Just ordered me two - obviously on separate orders!!!

    Just hoping that two identical orders wont be cancelled automatically - it'd be just my luck.

    Wow absolutely incredible price - thanks again

    Just to point out though my total price came to £26.04 both times so don't quite know why but I don't care really - I also went through quidco but it hardly seems worth doing so for 0.1% (3p ish unless my maths is wrong - might be at this time of night though!)

    A very good price.

    I remember paying £30 per 1Mb for my 386. My 4Mb cost me an arm and a leg.
