RAM upgrade

I bought a new thinkpad T60, but I want to add more RAM to the existing
512 MB.

Does the clockspeed of the upgrade has to match the existing RAM?
Is there any difference between brand-new vs. used RAM that I am
thinking of buying from eBay?
Does the brand of the RAM matter at all?

Thanks!

Another question you might be wanting to ask is,
"for the specific applications I'll be running, will I even notice
the increased ram?"

I see people every day who think they can pour money into their computer
and make it surf the web fasterer. Often, the answer is, "Go spend the
money on something you'll really enjoy, like hookers, booze and bail bond."

If you ruined my keyboard, I'll be sending you a bill! Stop that sort of
unexpected stuff :-)~ !

YOu're absolutely right, though.

Not a word you come across, very often! <g>
