What is the serial number of your laptop? Armed with that info I can get you more details on your maximum RAM or you can find out for yourself here:

Chosen Solution

Apple MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 2.0 13" (Black) Specs

Identifiers: Late 2006 - MA701LL/A - MacBook2,1 - A1181 - 2121

*Apple officially supports 2 GB of RAM, but third-parties have been "unofficially" able to upgrade it to 3 GB or 4 GB of RAM (it can hold 4 GB but cannot fully utilize the memory beyond 3 GB due to the same limitation that impacts the "Late 2006" MacBook Pro line).
