Yes and No

You cant install anything larger then 256MB
Also its supose to be PC100 but I have had success with PC133, but some chips will cause it to be unstable or do funny things.

Use 3.3 Volt Ram, 8ns unbuffered no ECC.
Single Sided only if I remmeber correctly

(and you should know that the system won't use the speed at 133, it will use 100)
