I'm also a satisfied Open Mac memory customer -- BUT, if you are
faint-hearted about wiggling and twisting things on pc boards
you might be little squeamish about installing their SIMM's.
There are two small capacitors (I guess that's what they are)
on very short leads sticking out of the SIMMs just to one side
of where the SIMM bracket plastic finger wants to sit.  On three
of the four OM SIMMs I installed in my MacII I had to wiggle and
push the caps to one side to make the little boards fit into
their brackets.  It was scary -- but they all work fine.
