Eric,
You can use any 'standard' PC 100/133 1.2±" DIMMS in your G3, and if
it's the DeskTop Beige G3, they MUST be double sided for the G3 to
recognize all the memory with the larger DIMMs.
If they are a bit too tall, just use some aviation type snips and cut
away the metal grill over the fan, but the later 'standard' height PC
100/133 DIMMs WILL fit. The 'low-profile' chips (usually more
expensive) and 1.15±" I believe won't need the use of the aviation
snips. ;)
I have a 256 MB double-sided DIMM low-latency, guaranteed to work in
a G3 DT that I *might* be forced to part with at the right price, but
the price would not be cheap. ;)
Have a look at http://www.memoryx.net/powg3beig.html for what's
available - you might be pleasantly surprised with some of the
low-end memory prices.

I have two full height Kingston PC100 SDRAM memory modules:
1. 128 MB (KTM1136/128)
2. 64 MB (KTM1136/64)
I am looking to trade these DIMMs for a low-profile SDRAM for a
PowerMac Beige G3:
1. 128 MB;
2. 2x64 MB; or,
3. whatever you dream up + or - $$
My two DIMMs work in all Macs that require PC100 or slower SDRAM (they
work in my Beige G3 DT, except the case can't close because the Beige
G3 DT requires low-profile DIMMs).
