doubtful, though you may or may not have damaged the card. try pulling it out and putting it in again and make sure it's all the way in, you do have to push hard, with a flash light you can see if it's in all the way, you might want to support the other side of the board with your other hand, besides it gives you better leverage (and make sure it's straight and even, because of the location it is a bit tricky, as are the pi slots on those machines... at least on the towers). also, the x600 macs in that series uses a different processor card that's not compatible with the x500 machines, though i doubt that would do any damage to the card or logic board beyond just not working together. i don't know off hand how you can tell the difference, i've got a 233mhz 604e card from a clone that works fine despite not looking much like the apple card.
