Mac Memory

[hennessy1]

On the newegg site do I have to go to the section specific for mac memory or can I use the regular notebook memory?

TEchnically you should be able to use any RAM.

it would depend on the mac, but now you can use pretty much any type of memory on them. Some of the older ones might be a little bit picker that I've seen at work, generally the pc133 era ibooks and such

Yeah, the newer Macs aren't as troublesome as some of the older ones.

If in doubt, Crucial has a good online tool for figuring out what will and what won't work:

From what I have seen, "MAC Certified" memory is no more expensive than the PC labled counterparts. It's the same stuff but has been tested and verified by the manufacturer. I would suggest buying MAC cert'd so that if you do have an issue, you have some recourse.
