You should have a look into you PowerBook documentation. The needed RAM
specification should be found there.
I got my powerbook from the original buyer and he didn't gave me the
documentation (he had misplaced it), the only thing I got was MacOSX
installation DVD and the iLife DVD.
I found the following spec at Apple.com:
The RAM expansion modules used in the 15-inch PowerBook G4 are standard
200-pin PC2700 DDR333 RAM SO-DIMMs, as defined in the JEDEC specifications.
The mechanical characteristics of the RAM expansion DDR SO-DIMM are
given in the JEDEC specification number JESD95 To obtain a copy of the
specification, see the references listed at "RAM Expansion Modules".
The specification defines DDR SO-DIMMs with nominal heights of 1.0,
1.25, 1.5, and 2.0 inches. The 15-inch PowerBook G4 can accommodate DDR
SO-DIMMS with heights of 1.25 inches or less.
If you need more information about your machine, have a look on
following page:

Thank you very much, Matthias!
