Hm. I have for many years been carrying around conventional (and therefore quote) wisdom (unquote) that RAM is RAM, supported by the fact that I've never had a memory blowout. Unless I have but I've forgotten...

I didn't get big-name-brand memory (having made the purchase right after joecab's first comment) but I did at least buy from a vendor with a good rating on pricewatch. (There are many vendors with bad ratings, to be sure.)

I've never had a problem buying RAM from that site. I always avoid the absolute cheapest because I'm a little paranoid, but the others have been fine. I presume Deal Ram prunes out the ones with bad customer service -- at least I've known them to do so in the past.
