About a year I bought a pair of 128mb RAMS for my PTP250 from Velocity Upgrades. These worked well. I recently bought another pair of 128's from VU when they went on sale (markings were identical) at $16.50 each. These caused all kinds of weird results even when substituted for last years pair. They showed up in Apple Profile correctly but not in TechTool Pro. These have lifetime warranty, but when I attempt to call Velocity Upgrades their phone service seems does not to be functioning - maybe out-of-business. I had similar results when trying to get good RAM for my iMac from VU; these I returned and bought good ones from Crucial. Cheap RAMs can be no bargain. Buy from a reliable company.
