I was wondering if name brand RAM (crucial/micron) Memory Size:
1024MB Memory Speed: 400MHz PC3200 Memory CAS Latency: 3 Memory Type:
DDR Pins: 184, will work in PM G5 2.7ghz running OS 10.4.11 if it is
not specifically listed for Mac. Price difference for 1gb sticks
seems to be about 2 X high

World-wide recession.
The spot price (commodities auction) for memory chips fell BELOW
their actual manufacturing cost
I would like 1GB (2 512s) for my QS ... but OWC says 32-36 per
512 ... which is the same price as last month.
Total for 2 is around $64-72 plus shipping.
A few years ago, I paid $69 (included shipping) for 1 512 stick at DMS.
Maybe I shouldn't wait too long?

The one I am on is a PC but my Mac is a G3. Possibly what has
happened is that DDR3 came out and the prices have gone up for DDR2
since like you say, people are changing and upgrading, but it does
fluctuate.

some other Mac parts for a good price.
