I purchased some OCZ technology PC5400 ram from Fry's in the dual channel kits for:
4 GB= 2- 2GB DDR2 $70 after rebate and $60 online
2 GB = 2- 1GB DDR2 $30 after rebate and $25 online
Go figure a $15 difference between store prices and online. I also bought a bluray copy of Blackhawk down also and it still came out cheaper than what I bought in the store by a few cents but didn't include the gas to drive there.
So I will split them up between my laptops and make Vista actually work.
Thanks for getting me the answer to my question.
