You are right, last year they were. Best buy carries different brands of memory now. I repeatedly hear from salesmen that users don't care at all about the manufacturer anymore. Memory is doing today what disk drives did in the late 90's. Remember when it mattered whether you had a Western Digital, Quantum, or Maxtor hard drive? I sure remember what happened shortly after brand name recognition became irrelevant...going down!! Strategy of buyers is different today too. Used to be you would buy the minimum upgrade you thought you needed. Nowadays you just buy 128, 256, or 512 meg so you don't ever have to worry about it again. Once again, same thing that happened with disk drives.
