Yes

Mac mini - You need to find instructions on the web (google perhaps), as
Apple does not consider this a user installable option. In addition the
Mac mini has only one RAM slot. Must remove exiting RAM card and
replace it with larger card. Maximum capacity of Mac mini is 1GB card.
What you do with the old memory card is up to you.

iBook - Comes with 1 empty memory card slot. This slot is located under
the keyboard. Actually it is under the keyboard, under the Airport
Extreme card, under a removable metal cover that that some very tiny
philips head screws. The iBook does have built in RAM (256MB in current
models), and can accept a 1GB card. Apple provides instructions on
installing RAM in an iBook as part of the owners manual. If you wish to
check out the owners manual before you buy, you can download a PDF copy
from the Apple web site: http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/ibook/
