I'm ALMOST positive I put pc133 ram into a latitude before. It was a p3 500 and it ran without a hitch.

worst case, either return it or sell it on ebay if it doesnt work out.

I'm almost positive I have also. And I don't remember any problems.

133 *should work in a pinch, but you'll still only get pc100 speeds.

ya i knew i would only get the 100 speed but the cost is like 1/3 the price for the 133 so if it would work i would get the 133 to save money
