Negative Positive
Title: works as advertised
Review: This was the first time I ever upgraded memory on a computer, after investigating several reviews, it became apparent that it is best to buy memory in pairs, that way they are identical and have the same bus speed, so I unplugged everything, grounded myself to the computer chasis, made every effort not to touch the metal points on the memory, and simply pull back the 2 retainers holding in the memory and pulled out the old one, and then plug in the new one, if for some reason it doesn't want to plug in, don't force it, you may need to spin it the other way, it only plugs in one way, very easy to install, my applications start much faster, my boot up is still lagging, but I believe there is an issue on my startup that hasn't anything to do with memory....so all in all, I'm happy with the purchase, I have an old Compaq pasario and this worked just fine, my computer automatically recognized the memory on boot up.
Is the review positive or negative?
