Hi guys. I have a T60 200766U with 1Gx1 of lenovo memory installed. Now I want to buy the Kingston ValueRAM 1GB DDR2 SDRAM Memory Module KVR667D2S5/1G to upgrade the memory to 2G. I heard that there are some compatible issue between lenovo memory and other brand memories. Does anyone have any experience with this kingston memory? I think the timing of lenovo memory is 5-5-5-15 and the kingston is 5-5-5-12. Is that a problem?

Thank you very much

that's a great price and since it is from Newegg you can return it if it doesn't work.
By the way, the idea of a poll on this sort of question is silly. It doesn't matter what percentage of people think it will work. They only way you will know if the module you buy will work in your notebook is to put it in there and see.

I may not buy it from newegg.com since it doesn't accept paypal and don't want to pay the shipping and restocking fee for a noncompatible memory.
