Default Best/cheapest place to buy RAM

So I've been somewhat disappointed with the performance of my new Apple, and I thought an upgrade to 2GB of RAM might help.

Anyone know a good place online or otherwise to get RAM for cheap?


Thanks

apple. easiest, although not necessarily cheapest but i listen to leo laport on kfi 640 and he said the technology isn't all there yet for MAC RAM and he recommends just going through apple.

All of the above and you can also try:

Mushkin

Crucial

If you only have 512MB, adding ram will definitely help, imho.

Definitely Crucial.com. If the RAM they suggest doesn't work just send it back for a full refund. They ship FedEx 2-day for free too.
