I figured &#8220;Let&#8217;s not get too excited&#8230; check Newegg&#8221; and no surprise they had the same deal but with better shipping options. For me, I am not going to lie&#8230; I love instant gratification when it comes to tech toys or upgrades. I tried ShopLocal to try to bargain hunt&#8230; but the local retailers were asking ridiculous $60.99 prices for just <strong>one<\/strong> <strong>stick<\/strong> of 1GB of RAM! The rational part of me said &#8220;Why the hell not go with Newegg? With their great shipping, it could be here as soon as Tuesday!&#8221; I am no brand whore, but to have Crucial Memory in my system will be hot. I got into playing with VirtualBox last night, so the RAM should help me test distributions within the comfort of Ubuntu.<\/p>\n<p>The new RAM should be like injecting steroids into my laptop&#8230; I can&#8217;t even begin to tell you the excitement. I do plan to document my exploits though.
