Apple Usb Mouse

Released with the iMac G3 in 1998 and included with all successive desktop Macs for the next 2 years, the round "Hockey puck" USB mouse is widely considered one of Apple's worst mistakes. Marking the switch from ADB, the colorful translucent mouse was a radical departure from its predecessors, down to a ball whose two-tone surface fluttered past the user's eyes as it spun under the mouse's translucent housing. However stylish, the mouse's round shape is widely considered clumsy, due to its small size and tendency to rotate in use. This was a major cause for the success of the Griffin iMate ADB to USB adapters, as they allowed for the use of the older, more comfortable ADB Mouse II to be used with new iMacs. Later revisions included a shallow indentation on the front of the button, but this was not enough to prevent a flood of third-party products like the iCatch, a shell that attached to the USB mouse to give it the ADB mouse's elliptical shape. Another flaw introduced in the Apple USB Mouse, shared across all of Apple's USB offerings, is the atypically short cord. Though intended for use through the integrated hub in Apple's keyboards, Apple's transition to USB coincided with the relocation of ports on their laptops from the center to the left edge. As none of Apple's USB mice have cords longer than two feet, they are impractical for most right-handed users. In 2000, the Apple USB Mouse was replaced with the Apple Pro Mouse. The USB mouse's colors were:

Bondi Blue-iMac G3

Blueberry-iMac G3 and Power Mac G3 Blue and White

Strawberry-iMac G3

Grape-iMac G3

Lime-iMac G3

Graphite-iMac G3 Special Edition and Power Mac G4

iBook Clamshell RAM Upgrade?

So I'm planning on upgrading a Key Lime iBook G3 with more ram. I was told that a low density 512MB module would be the best. When I browsed around for these, I found 256x2 MB. Is this the same thing and would it fit correctly into this version of the iBook?

The iBook clamshellls are from 2000. None of the RAM manufactured today will fit in them unless it explicitly says it will work for the G3 iBooks.
