2GB Dual Channel DDR2-667Mhz RAM

<p>I got it in June...I think it came two days before my birthday (the 9th)? I dunno, but I absolutely love it. </p>
<p>And I also love the waranty that says that even if I do something incredibly stupid, they'll fix it...that's priceless right there! lol</p>

<p>AUlostchick, we ordered mine on the 4th and, like I said above, got it on the 9th. I live in East Texas, though, so it didn't have far to travel.</p>
