My question is this. I currently have 2x1g of Crucial Ballistix 1066. I was going to get Vista 64bit here in a few months and was wondering if I were to get two more 2x2g sticks if they would be compatible with the other 2x1 sticks? Or would I have to get the same 2x1g sticks to match the others?

Should always use matching RAM, in fact best to buy in sets, but if you get another set of the same Ballistix, should be OK. You can get 2 x 2GB for around $85 and either sell the other RAM or just keep, never hurts to have back up parts
