My local high school will be getting new macs soon and I suggested that they could save money by buying 3rd party memory and not Apples. My question is if this is a good choice or if they should go with something different.

It just seems like too good of a deal to be true.

I bought 2 for my iMac and no complaints so far.

It can be had for cheaper, but in my opinion you can't beat OWC for friendliness and support. I just ordered this myself for my new iMac.

Thanks for the help. I think i will go with the OWC because of the customer service and all the good things I've heard about them.
