(2) 16 vs one 32 gb Transcend

I purchased 3 kingston 16gb 133x CF cards and so far they have been working very well. I am hoping to get 2 32gb CF cards soon and was hoping for some suggestions, brands to avoid , etc... I picked up the kingstons on sale for about $40 each at Microcenter.

There is a thread on the Convergent Design section that warns about using Transcend 32g 133x cards in a Mac. They seem to feel there is some issues with the Mac that permanantly destroys the 32g, 133x cards.

I went to Microcenter and told them that Fry's Electrnic had the 32 Kingston for $79. and the salesman went to Fry's web site copy the page with the lower price and the cashier match the price.
