I'm sure this has been asked a bazillion times before but the search feature keeps giving me a 404 error.
I've got 15" 1.5GHz Powerbook purchased in February of this year after the last revision. Its running PC2700 DDR RAM. I've currently got 1GB in it but am looking to go up to 1.5 or possibly 2GB worth. What's the PIN size/number? I'm assuming its 200-pin but I can't remember from when I upgraded after I bought it and I can't seem to find the exact specs on Apple's website.

This is what I'm looking at getting:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145068

Will that work? If so I'll be ordering probably two of them tonight but I wanted to make definite sure before I do so.

Thanks!

If you'll notice in the reviews for the product, several PowerBook users testified that it works. So, you're fine.
