Yes, it seems to work without any problems on my G4/350 AGP, but I wanted to
confirm that it's PC133 for a couple of reasons:
- one, people have recommended using PC133 with big G4 upgrades (I've got a
G4/1Ghz) to reduce potential problems
- two, I've seen discounts on PC133 RAM (from OWC) that, according to OWC,
"doesn't work when installed alongside PC100 memory"
