Hi all
I'm interested in installing a gig of RAM in my iMac, it's one of the intel based models. The dimm slots are on the bottom of the unit/monitor.
The specifics it needs are the 200 pin DDR2 PC2-5300 cards. I'm looking at this particular item on new egg.com

My question is: the item is sold as "apple notebook" RAM, and though it meets the requirments for my mac's memory, I was wondering if there was any difference and if it's somehow not compatible because RAM labled "mac desktop" runs about $150 for a gig, whereas this laptop ram is $55. This price difference raises my eyebrow.
Thanks for any help.
