Oh, great, considering if I am having issues with my RAM, it's probably a
matched PC3200 2GB Kingston kit that is causing problems (not G5 certified),
I'm looking at an expensive replacement. I was just getting ready to buy
another 2GB as well (I almost bought it last Friday). Looks like 2GB G5
PC3200 Kingston is still ~$250. Ouch. (I say that remembering paying $600
for 16Mb for my PowerBook 520c.)
