A few months ago I bought a 512 chip for my 500 ibook.

If I buy a G4 powerbook 867 can i use that chip in it?

Also is it hard to install memory/take out memory.

I had the place I bought it from put it in because I bought something else and they did it for free.

I put memory in my old 1400 c... it seems easy enough.

If you are asking if it can go in a 12" model, no it can't. The 12" uses DDR memory.
