Laptops rarely use the standard [http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/ram-simm.jpg SIMM] and [http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/ram-dimm.jpg DIMM] memory modules used by non-portable machines. Instead, you may find:
 
 
* 72 pin SODimm (Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module [http://www.hal-pc.org/journal/2004/04_apr/200404MemoryPart2_files/image008.jpg] )
 
* 144 Pin SODimm (Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module [http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/ram-sodimm.jpg])
 
* DDR SDRAM (Dual Data Rate Synchronous RAM [http://images.overstock.com/f/102/3117/8h/www.overstock.com/images/products/10389267.jpg])
 
* SDRAM (Single data rate Synchronous RAM [http://educations.newegg.com/category/381/buy/image01.jpg])
