Got one 2GB, one 4GB. Had them in order on the table, but picked them up together and forgot which was in the bottom clip, which was in the top.

Does it matter?

Patience, Grasshopper.

The real answer is "it depends" but no, it's highly unlikely to matter.

Good work, Dundee! 8)

Laptops are a pain to work with if any kinda disassembly is involved.

Had a Dell reassembled from component parts (just to clean the sodding fan) in about 15 mins the other day. Colour me shocked.

Yup, this was a Dell. All I wanted to do was clean the fan and surround, but you have to take the whole thing apart, so all your left with is the bit of plastic at the bottom, with the fan bolted to it. Fan off, clean it, everything back on again. Simple enough, but ridiculous all the same!
