Great info thanks!

However I've found two different RAM PC100 on Amazon at different prices. Both Kingston thought teh more expensive one is "Low-Profile". What does that mean?

Kingston ValueRam 256MB PC100 SODIMM CL2 £22.99

Kingston ValueRam 256MB PC100 Low-Profile SODIMM CL2 £42.80

Would either one work?
Also isn't the PIN important as well?
I haven't heard that being mentioned here.

Searched for it in Amazon and none seem to be PC100/133:

Will the ones I've posted above not work?


Make sure the form factor of whatever you are buying will fit into your 4000. There is a significant difference between desktop RAM and Notebook RAM -- they are not interchangeable.

The pictures you posted are of laptop memory. You need desktop memory.
