Cristy, If you actually said "I'd like to add 1 Gig of memory to this computer", then they sold you the wrong thing and should be completely responsible for the blunder. If you said "I'd like to add a 1GB stick of memory for this computer", then YOU were the one making the mistake. The fact that HE picked out the memory to be installed is the strongest thing you have going for you here. Yes, they should have looked up the model of the system and then told you that the memory for that system needs to be installed in matched pairs. He could have then asked you what types of things you do with your system and then explained that it would be to your benefit to go with two 1GB sticks instead of just two 512MB sticks to allow for the extra needed muscle those programs demand. Once the case was opened and he saw that there were an odd number of sticks in there, he could then have told you that you're going to love the difference in how speedy the upgrade is going to feel, pulled the old sticks, placed them in a zip lock bag and handed them to you to keep as spares. All of the extra words used would have taken up an additional two minutes of his time, the Geek Squad reputation is bettered by at least one tech, you'd tell all your friends providing them with even more business, everyone would have been happy and you wouldn't be dealing with this situation.
