wanna ask, anyone think this higher price ram got any different compare to Kingston VR?
cuz it just said "Guaranteed-compatible memory upgrades for your Apple MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (15-inch DDR3) MB470LL/A Laptop/Notebook."

well the crucial rams are the closest to the Apple OEM rams,thats why they can guarantee maximum compatibility. you can actually get it way cheaper through ebay and the shipping is free too, http://cgi.ebay.com.my/CRUCIAL-4GB-2X2GB-D...p3286.m63.l1177

Does anyone knows which shop selling the rams that would do the installation? I'm worried about the incompatible issues and would prefer to test it on the spot before purchasing.

depends. i read somewhere that the new i5 and i7 is able to accept 1333mhz as this is the hardware specs of i5/i7. I have no idea why apple puts in 1066mhz instead.

firstly, 1333 mhz is quite new
when apple intro unibody mac, only 1066 available in market, the board only take 1066 ( as FSB rating)
and so far, no i5/i7 chip on mac yet
