Can anyone confirm if this memory upgrade will work on a Core Duo iMac ?

(Kingston ValueRAM 667MHz DDR2 Non-ECC, Unbuffered SO-DIMM)

Thanks.

Disclaimer: I looked at Apple's authorized upgrades and they show a different Kingston part number.
Also, I tried the search function on the forums but for the life of me I couldn't get it to return anything useful or for that matter work at all.

if the specs match the required specs of that computer, it will work. You don't need to completely match Apple or the original RAM that came with it.

Either should work, but I'd suggest Transcend from Newegg for $83 shipped.
