    Default Curious about AlPowerBook 12 & 15 RAM

    Hi guys,

    I just wanted to get an answer to this question that has been bugging me.

    Is the RAM chip of the AlPowerBook 15-inch the same in terms of size and spec with the RAM chip from a AlPowerBook 12-inch. Are they interchangeable?

    I was thinking of moving the 512mb RAM chip from my 12-inch to my 15-inch because i need more RAM in my PB15 for my photo and music programs.

    Thanks a mil guys!

    First Gen AlBook 12" is using PC266/PC333 while the 2nd gen is PC333.

    AlBook 15" is using PC 333 but very "picky".

    Please verify the RAM on your 12".

    Kenneth's right. PBooks highlighted in red all use the same RAM. To learn more visit
