I recently traded my Mini for an iBook and am wondering if I could use the old 256 from the Mini, in the iBook, despite the iBook being PC2100? Is there a difference between laptop and desktop ram, sorry I don't have much laptop experience at all (this is my first one).

I don't think the ram on the mini would work on the iBook.
From what I've read, the Mac Mini uses 184-pin DIMM ram, while iBooks uses 200-pin SODIMM ram.

No.
Notebooks use special minature-size RAM, called SO-DIMM. Normal desktop RAM is known as a DIMM. The mini's RAM is a regular DIMM and wouldn't fit in the iBook.

i would check newegg.com. i purchased a 512mb stick for $60 shipped. but if you only want an extra 256mb upgrade, it's about $25-30

That is a very nice and small animated gif though. Maybe it's time to change that rule.
Those smilies are animated
