M. Frank Kingston memory for imac
I bought both the 1GB and 2GB (the max for my imac). Both work great and have increased the speed of my computer. I was nervous at first when installing the memory. I thought I pushed both in far enough but the computer didn't boot up. It takes a lot of push (straight in) to seat it and then you'll feel it click into place.

J. P. Trapasso ( San Jose, CA ) 1GHz SoDimm performs as expected
I needed 2 1GB SoDimms for my Dell. These came at a great price and is performing just as I'd expect memory to perform. I can't claim this product to be any better than any other product on the market. They're all about the same. I can confirm that this product performs as expected, though. Whether used for a PC or for an Apple, ram is ram.

pebblepuppy ( Missouri ) Easy as pie.
I work with RAW files in iPhoto and Aperture and found it was bogging my computer down. Moving from one file to the next was slow if I made any changes at all. I talked to Apple and they suggested boosting the ram. The Apple customer service person told me that Kingston was a good brand and that installing ram was the only thing she would suggest a consumer to do to their iMac. She said my 20" (late 2006 white body desktop dual core) iMac will hold 4GB (2 in each of the two slots, but will only use 3GB. So I should order a 2GB and a 1GB. Why pay for 4 when it won't use it? She also said it was ok to mix size as long as they matched each other otherwise. It took me while to find the right memory for my computer. I learned that my desktop actually takes memory that usually says "laptop" in the description. As long as it is 667MHz, DDR2, SoDimm unbuffered and for Apple computers it would work in my model. I learned from a reviewer on Amazon that Kingston makes two qualities and to get the KTA. I took all this advice and ordered from Amazon because I trust them and knew if there was a problem, it would be taken care of. Plus the price was good and FREE shipping is always nice. Some sites charge $6 or $7 for a tiny package. I got them both quickly, but a day apart for some reason. They are considerable smaller than PC versions.
They were easy to install. I've installed memory in PC's (never a Mac) before but I still I got instructions from the Apple website. I just unplugged everything, laid it down, and took off the middle grate on the bottom. Be sure to softly pad the surface you lay your computer face down on. I pulled the white clips and they popped loose. Apple says you will "hear a click" when they seat, but you must have to be a dog to hear it. I did FEEL a little soft snap though. Just FYI, large bold print said "don't use the security clips to seat memory". I fired it up and it worked perfectly. I can tell a difference from the 1GB total to the 3 I now have. Especially when working in Aperture with raw files.

H. Dinh ( OKUSA ) So far so good..
I bought this to add into my MacBook Pro and I can see huge performance improvement. Loading 500MB scanned photograph into Photoshop used to take 5 minutes, now about under 30 seconds.
I just got my MBP back from repair and was very nervous about adding non-apple parts. I suspect the last problem I had came form bad memory. But this memory is certified to run my with MBP and I really believe I would get about the same quality to have Apple add the memory for me. So far, so good. The machine runs smoothly and is well behave, so I keep my finger crossed.

djamiol ( Colorado, USA ) Makes all the difference in the world!
Installation was a snap and it works great! PhotoShop Elements 6 for MAC loves the additional memory.
