Is it possible to use PC2700-253 memory in an iBook 2002? At present it has 128mb and I'd like to increase it to 512mb as I have one to hand.

Use Crucial.com to determine what DIMMs are compatible with your iBook, and go from there.

I'm pretty sure an iBook from 2002 is a G3, which means it takes PC66/PC100/PC133 RAM. If it's a G4, it likely takes DDR RAM.
For all the trash I talk, I sure own a lot of Macs...

A 2002 iBook is a G3, so DDR2 (PC2700 and friends) won't even fit.
