It does go in a regular DIMM slot.  But yes, kludge, hammers, the works.
  Still damn fast if you use it intelligently, but don't expect it to
just jump into RAM's place and work great.

There's a great deal more to it than that, not the least of which are BIOS/system firmware level changes needed, as well as OS support. But lots of folks are bought into the notion of "drop it in and it just gets faster."

As Ellis said, click your heels three times and repeat "there is no such thing as a silver bullet..."
