You don't have to buy from them, if you like you can ask their salesmen about the memory that will work on your PCV-150.

The results from Crucial.com indicate that her VAIO runs on a 66MHz bus. Both PC100 and PC133 are usually backward compatible and should work fine, but they'll only run as fast as the bus (66MHz)

Here is a list of memory modules that Crucial guarantees to be 100% compatible with the VAIO PCV 150.

...and here's a couple of questions from the Crucial FAQ that should help

Can I use PC133 or PC100 SDRAM in my 66MHz PC? (http://support.crucial.com/scripts/crucial.exe/solution?11=991227-0001&130=000946320597&14=&2715=&15=&2716=&57=search&58=&2900=&25=6&3=PC100)

Should I buy a PC100 module or a PC133 module? (http://support.crucial.com/scripts/crucial.exe/solution?11=001204-0006&130=000975967499&14=&2715=&15=&2716=&57=search&58=&2900=&25=6&3=PC100)


How difficult is it to install memory? (http://support.crucial.com/scripts/crucial.exe/solution?11=991220-0006&130=000945710734&14=&2715=&15=&2716=&57=search&58=&2900=&25=6&3=installing)

Thanks a bunch Guys, great to get help here, will advise her to getPC100, as I understand it she will still have more memory, but will run slower than for instance my machine. she does need more memory. TNX again Alondra

been telling my daughter she needs more memory, has 32 mb, lives quite a way from me so cant see her comp. she says has a Sony VAIO mod PCV-150 stats say 32mb SCRAM upgradable to 256. she want to know if PC 100 or PC133. what is the difference, I suspect should be PC100. I think I can walk her husband (hes a programmer) thru installing it by e mail. any advise, may be they can have Best Buy unstall it. TNX

My kids need more memory too. They never remember what I tell them.

You need to upgrade their hd space where the swap file can be placed daytime, don't forget to save before you shutdown them for the night.
