Okay here's what I have:
2 256MB PC133 S0-Dimms for either
Powerbooks G4/G3* models iMacs* or iBooks.
$35.00 a piece :D
*only if they take PC133 memory, not PC100
This will show up in a Powerbook G3 (lombard) as only 128MB if you try.
I have tested both of these dimms in my Powerbook G4 Ti800.
They are good to go. :D

From what it says below it looks like they would work in your Pismo :D If I'm wrong then I guess I read the stuff below wrong. BTW, that bottom slot (low profile) memory thing is crap... I put a full height 128MB in my Wife's Powerbook (bronze keyboard) and it works fine.. Maybe the lowprofile thing is like an urban myth.

Apple's solution to having had 4 products named the PowerBook G3, was to drop the G3 altogether. Announced in Febrary 2000 at MacWorld Tokyo, The PowerBook (FireWire) finally brought the "Unified Motherboard Architecture" (UMA) to the professional PowerBook line. Although it shipped in virtually the same case design as the "bronze keyboard" PowerBook G3, the PowerBook (FireWire) added many impressive "under the hood" features.
