The 4GB DIMM works perfectly well in my daughter's T61, along with a 2GB one...RAM is fine, it just doesn't fly well on T60p in that quantity.
Honestly, if the amount of available RAM is the biggest issue you're facing with T60p, consider yourself lucky... I'm typing on mine now and yes, it's a great machine. Run it next to a T520 and it will seem like a snail. A lovable snail, but a snail no less. And that's coming from someone who hates 16:9 format with a passion... If your T60p is a 4:3 unit, you can always throw in a T61/p board with a couple of small mods and enjoy 8GB...

Really? That's sad -- I've always been able to stuff more memory than what IBM said before. That the chipset limits one to 3G is even more depressing. I wonder what the chance is that dissimilar sodimms would have a problem. Still, if the chipset is hobbled, it wouldn't matter. Feh.
