Not to discount Mr. Kolps .02 cents, but it is my impression that this 
is NOT 
cheap memory
, but a 
stash
 of original memory that someone 
stumbled on and is selling for what the market will bear. Since the 
customer base for this particular DIMM is infinitesimally small, I can't 
imagine that anyone took the time to fabricate this very specialized 
(only for the PB 2400c) memory to make a quick buck. But, I could be wrong.

I received mine the other day and the PB is boxed up, ready to be 
shipped up the Freeway to Kevin at MCE for installation, along with a 
replacement HD and new PRAM battery.


To Andy Nicholl -my British Ally. . having recently dealt with this 
particular Vendor, I don't think you are going to have any luck with him 
shipping outside the US. He seemed pretty adamant about not doing that.

If you have a problem with him dealing with International shipping . .I 
will buy one for you and trans ship it from my place. I am just down the 
Freeway from this guy and have a pretty good discount on FedEx

I can't quote you a price on what it will cost from here to Britannia 
-BUT- I recently sent my daughter, who was visiting in London, a 3 pound 
small FedEx Box, which cost $14 US. . I would be happy to buy it and 
ship to you. If you provide me your full physical delivery address and 
phone # (private E-mail, off-line) I will quote you what the rate will 
be, directly from the FedEx site. I will also call it a 
gift
 which 
should keep those nasty, foul, Left-Wing Socialists from taxing it.
