[P1] what's the difference between...

[Lachlan Yee]

Dear Pamela,

Yes, PC133 is definitely faster, later technology.

A good place to start to see if there is some compatibility is this 
little program called Mactracker.  A must for Mac enthusiast who want 
to know about their machine.

Go here:  http://www.mactracker.ca/

It appears from the information that you have given that your memory ID 
in your key lime iBook is PC66.  This is perhaps the last of the 
clamshell model ibooks?  So believe you can purchase the PC100, you 
won't get the full speed benefit, as you are limited by the 66 however 
no need to spend extra on the PC133.

Hope this helps a little, just wanted to contribute to this excellent 
and informative list for iBook users.

Lachlan.
