. . . or return it unopened?
512MB PC133 for $114.95?
Is it a good brand name and is it a decent price for a brick & mortar purchase? I'm not buying anything mail order for a while. Cost to me will only be about $55 as it's a replacement for the original 128MB DIMM I yanked to install in my brother's 32MB WinMilennium eMachine. I suspect he thought the disk access LED was a power indicator! HEH!
Target System: G4/466 Digital Audio
TIA for advice,

It should work. Apple switched over to PC memory a while back to make it easier for Mac owners to purchase memory. The item you mentioned is a no-name brand, but it should still work fine. I don't even know who makes some of the RAM in my laptop, but it seems to be working well.
. . . that confirms what I'd gathered from the google hits. The only major complaints had to do with some difficulties mixing 256MB CENTON DIMMs with PC100 in older systems a few years back.
I was only concerned because I'd read an interesting thread recently about cheap memory sometimes being a problem with the "MDDs" (?) and wondered if I should stick with Kingston . . . and I couldn't find the thread to reread it . . .

Not all memory likes to be underclocked. Generally, the better-quality DIMMs can stand one bump down (PC100 to PC66, PC133 to PC100) but the generic RAM sometimes won't stand it.
. . . and I was just getting used to the idea of having HDDs I couldn't back up to CD-R without using compression!
768MB of RAM! :o
