It occasionally happens, not always.  Apple designs its machine with
RAM that is available at the time.  In a year or so, the RAM
manufacturers improve their technology, and they sell higher capacity
RAM.  The newer RAM is usually, not always, backward compatible into
Apple's original design.  I cannot address the technical details of
how this happens.  So I would depend on Crucial and OWC to give
accurate, up to date info.  After all, they have money back
policies.
