Installed memory GRT816S

Why does Sony ship laptops with 256mb X 2 , thereby filling both
available DDR slots and making the upgrade to the maximum of 1gb so
expensive ?.
Is iI I wonder because both dimm slots have to be propagated?
That would be the only justification.

Sony then compound the expense by implying that only Sony memory is
compatable and charging £199 for each 512mb per dim.
A grand total of £398(not inclusive of postage) to add 512mb of ram.

Thank God for Crucial which cost about £153 (post incl.) for 512mb X 2

Had my gripe now I will shut-up

ps Bought 512mb of Crucial memory cost £78.34 Laptop and me going
very well on 768 mb ram

Looking at Acer Ferrari


YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS - You are reallly prepared to buy the competition?

I am really disappointed about this!

Trust me - looking at what is to come.....


...you will regret buying a "B"-brand.

Don't worry CU - I haven't gone against Sony, I'm shopping around :slight_smile:
Don't think I will buy one.
