There seems to be roughly $200 price difference between TP-Proven (IBM
Authorized) 16MB memory and the ones from non-TP-Proven vendors.
Apparently, only IBM, Apex, and Apricorn 16 MB DRAM cards seem to be
TP-Proven, and IBM 16 MB DIMMS alone are TP-Proven. Who are the other
reputable memory vendors beside the three above? I believe some offer a
lifetime warranty (whatever that means) eventhough not TP-Proven?

What are the experiences in this forum with these thirdparty memory?
Also, if I added one of these non-TP-Proven DRAM or DIMM would it void
the IBM International Warranty on the TP?

Regards,

VGA
