i think crucial has the best bang for your buck, for the average user.
corsair has probably the better high-end stuff if you're a power user.

I'm only grabbing 2GB and the price difference is about $6.

personally I get corsair, but just to stay consistent with my purchases. any brand is probably fine anyways. there's not that many companies actually manufacturing the chips anyhow. given your choice, I'd spend the extra $6 to get corsair.

2nded what impala said. as long as its the same brand it shouldnt matter much.

if the price difference is only $6, then there's probably not much difference. they're both budget ram i'm assuming?

get the model #'s and look at the reviews on newegg, see which one is more popular and has higher reviews.
