| I'm looking for 3 sticks of 168-pin 256Mb memory for my old and sad computer. What's the easiest and cheapest place to get this tiny bit of increased speed for my dinosaur? |

| Just a note, SD ram is more expensive than DDR Ram, so be prepared to pay. |

This is a false statement. Desktop 256MB sticks of both DDRAM and SDRAM hover around 20,000w (notebook ram is cheaper). You can get somewhat cheaper if you look around and bargain. The used hardware hallway of Sunin Plaza's got lots.
If you've got more than one slot and are wanting to go cheap, you might fill up with 128mb SDRAM sticks. I bought 5 of these last month there for 4000w each for my schools "old and sad" computers. |

Not actually. I tried to buy some 512MB SD sticks and they were more than DDR sticks. I am not talking about notebook RAM either.
Maybe the 128MB are cheap, but not the 512MB ones. |
