I know these use pc2700 ram
but can you use pc2100 ram?

is the pentium m performance as dependent on FSB as the p4's is


assuming pc2100 does work, will it decrease performance

Which do you have? I have a T40 that uses PC2100. If you use PC2100 in a machine that starts off with PC2700, I would assume you would notice a slight performance loss.

With memory prices at pretty decent prices right now, I would just sell the ram with your laptop and buy a new stick. I ordered a stick of 512mb crucial pc2700 for my buddy from newegg.
