The answer is basically yes. However they might have something specific for that machine. Check Dell.com and Crucial.Com to see if there are any specific differences.

The computer I am writing this on is a DELL and I have changed the SoDIMM module to a Crucial. There probably will not be any issues but I wouldn't put it past Dell, Compaq, and Gateway to do something where you NEED THEIR memory modules. I can't stand them.
