[QUOTE="glosswhite, post: 566131, member: 36106"] ...but if you take the memory out of a current Mac Mini, the label CLEARLY says "Hynix"... [IMG]http://i19.tinypic.com/6xvlv12.jpg[/IMG] I see what you are saying, but I am pretty sure that there *IS* a Hynix branded stick - the evidence is in front of you. Okay - *you* had issues with Kingston. This does not demote their products to "garbage" status, based upon the feedback from ONE consumer. Think carefully... MILLIONS of computers use this highly reputable company for their RAM, and it has a reputation to be proud of. PNY I am sure are okay, but hardly top-tier. I agree wholeheartedly re: Crucial; they are ALWAYS my first port of call. However on this occasion, Kingston SODIMMs (not ValueRam!) are £25ish per 2Gb stick whereas the equivalent Crucial part is £45ish per 2Gb. Crucial are 99% of the time, THE cheapest I can find. Go figure... :Confused: [/QUOTE]
