[G4] Apple certified SDRAM?

[John Niven]

PC133 ram is faster than you require, so even if the
cheap ram is marginal to PC133, it should still be
fast enough for your G4. It must not be registered ram
though (which was used in servers and often sells
cheap). 

That's the advantage to being at the tail end of the
technology curve :-)

I would suggest downloading a ram testing s/w package
to test the ram when installed. Ram problems can be
very subtle and hard to diagnose. Having the ability
to test the installed ram will put your mind at ease.

If you can get 1Gb, you will be pleased.

G4 or not to G4? That is the question.
