Using MacBook Pro memory in old MacBook?

    I bought 4GB RAM from crucial for my new MacBook Pro and am just wondering if anyone knows off-hand if I can put the factory-fitted 2GB (1GB x 1GB) from the MBP into my old MacBook before I sell it?

    Old MacBook is a 2.0 GHz, Core Duo. Crucial says it runs on the following...

    # Module Size: 1GB kit (512MBx2)
    # Package: 200-pin SODIMM
    # Feature: DDR2 PC2-5300
    # Specs: DDR2 PC2-5300 • CL=5 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR2-667 • 1.8V • 64Meg x 64

    Which is similar to what the new MacBook Pro has factory-installed...

    # Module Size: 2GB kit (1GBx2)
    # Package: 200-pin SODIMM
    # Feature: DDR2 PC2-5300
    # Specs: DDR2 PC2-5300 • CL=5 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR2-667 • 1.8V • 128Meg x 64

    The only difference I see is the MacBook Pro is '128Meg x 64' instead of '64Meg x 64'. Does this mean they are not compatible?
