If you go to crucial.com and price out a 512 MB stick for the 1.2 GHz iBook G4 using their 'Memory Finder' the price comes out to about £25 more than if you simply go straight to the 200-pin 512 MB PC2100 SO-DIMM which is what the iBook uses.
The specs are identical:
Apple-specific listing:
512MB - DDR PC2100 • CL=2.5 • UNBUFFERED • NON-ECC • DDR266 • 2.5V •
£83
regular 200-pin SO-Dimm:
512 MB - DDR PC2100 • CL=2.5 • UNBUFFERED • NON-ECC • DDR266 • 2.5V • 64Meg x 64
£58
Other than '64Meg x 64' there is no difference in the listing whatsoever (is that significant?) Is there any reason the cheaper stick won't work in my 1.2 GHz iBook?
