I spent half an afternoon at prime one day trying to get memory for a 
used box.  They let me bring to box in, hook it up to a monitor and 
keyboard and try different memory configurations.  They were great. 
They spent more time on me then was warranted for the purchase of a 
couple if sticks of memory.
