Summary: not for an iBook.
Review: Although this is listed as iBook memory, mine (a dual-USB) doesn't recognize it. I've checked everything I know to check, and can narrow it down to one of two problems: just a bad chip, or (more likely) that it's not compatible. According to the Apple support website, "... some third-party RAM (memory) may no longer be recognized by the computer after installing the 4.1.7, 4.1.8, or 4.1.9 firmware updates for iBook."

They describe the problem:

"When purchasing RAM modules for use in Macintosh computers, make sure that they conform to the JEDEC specification. Check with your memory vendor to ensure that the RAM module supports the correct timing modes and that their Serial Presence Detect (SPD) feature has been programmed properly, as called out in the JEDEC specification."

Since I couldn't easily locate the manufacturer (try doing a web search for "Memory Upgrades"!) or technical information on the chip... For whatever reason, it simply isn't working.
