Is there a cheaper place for ram rather than buying through apple.com? Since 2 gigs is like $300.
I thought of just gettting the basic stuff and upgrading ram later. So now I am looking to get at least 2 gigs of ram.

Also just bought a G5:
Dual-core 2.3GHz PowerPC G5 processor
1.15GHz frontside bus per processor
1MB L2 cache per core
512MB of 533MHz DDR2 SDRAM (PC2-4200)
250GB Serial ATA hard drive
16x SuperDrive (double-layer)
NVIDIA GeForce 6600 with 256MB GDDR SDRAM

Crucial is good because their RAM finder is very easy.

I think that my Dad bought 2GB's for his Powermac G5 from Crucial, it's a great service. Easy to use and fast delivery.

www.crucial.com is my preferred choice. I've personally haven't ordered any RAM from them yet, but many people I've spoke to recommend them.
