I bought memory from HP and they delivered Kingston memory.  Therefore
there is no reason for your HP CE to hassle you concerning Kingston
memory.  I figured if HP can deliver Kingston memory then I can buy
anything.  So I bought Newport Digital memory.  It is even cheaper.  I
have had no problems with it.
