I've bought a lot of OWC RAM modules, previously for my MP, and now on my MBP, they work like charm... But be careful with their selection of cheaper NuRAM. Though OWC carries them, it's not their in-house brand, and some users have reported problems using them.

hello guys, I'm doing a interest check if any of you folks interested in getting apple cables, such as minidisplay to DVI adapter, minidisplay to HDCP cable, minidisplay to VGA. As you probably knew, you could easily get them from applestore or premium retailers, with premium price of course. I'm thinking to buy some from Monoprice, a very trusted brand with reputable products. Some of you may have heard about it. So I thought maybe I could organise a bulk or something, win-win situation for everyone. So, if anyone is interested, please drop a message in my thread: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1836113Thanks peeps
