Now that I think about it, I do recall those RAM modules being a lot harder to insert than the stock RAM. But I know for a fact that I bought those exact modules, so unless your MacBook is somehow dramatically different than mine, it should just go in with a really hard push.

I bought mine in July of 2006... I am now determined to make this work haha.

*One more thing, it wasn't a Pro right, just the plain white Macbook? Just asking incase the slot width might be for some reason different.

Yeppers, it's a white MacBook. If you need any more assurance that it should work, compare the stock RAM to the RAM from NewEgg. They should be identical shape and size.

They're identical size and shape but the ones I got from newegg are wider a bit because of several black squares on the side of the modules but the actual gold plating area and module thickness is identical.
