My PCPro Technical Information indicates that the cache chip is 3.3 v, 
whereas, I think I recall, those in Apple Macs are 5.0 v.

Neither will work in the other ... and PCC cache chips in a Mac may get 
'blown'.

There were, I also think I recall, some cache chips - retail versions - that 
could be switched ... aor maybe it was the computer that c/be switched.

You can almost certainly find more and better information on PowerWatch
<http://www.powerwatch.com/>.

Hope this helps.
