On a purely legal issue: Memory Uprgrades often hears reports that a OEM representative has told a customer that using third party memory or hard drive products will void the systems warranty. Using this logic, the sales representative will try to coerce the customers into purchasing their own products, usually at much higher prices than Memory Upgrades is charging. This sort of threat spreads fear and uncertainty into consumers. In legal terms, this type of ploy is referred to as a "tie-in sales provision." Such provisions are illegal. They are specifically prohibited in the consumer market by section 102(c) of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act of 1995. In server, networking and workstation markets, such "tie-ins" can violate sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Antitrust Act.

To our knowledge, no OEM has put that in writing.
