Hi,

i have a lovely Powerbook 1400cs, with 16 mb RAM, and need to upgrade my
RAM.  I've looking around for prices, and i can't help but notice a
great gap in prices.  For example, at MacWarehouse, i can get my 24 MB of
RAM for 330$, but i've also seen 8 MB of RAM for 145$  

What's the difference between the RAM i buy at Apple, MacWarehouse or at any 
other place?  And if they're the same, is there something else i should be 
worried about?

Thanks a lot!
