Just ordered a 1gb for my laptop, and it comes tomorrow. I want to fit it my self, but it says i need to "ground" the lap top. What the fuck does that mean?
Touch a peice of bear metal to "ground" youself, i.e. remove any static discharge you may have before touching the memory chip.
You should always ground youself before touching computer components although most people don't and it is very uncommon for items not to work though.
