I believe (from when I had a clamshell SE) the onboard soldered RAM is 64MB and you have one expansion slot. At the time, I think the max. RAM chip you could get was a 256MB, maxing you at 320MB. Now you can buy 512MB chips that will slide into your expansion, maxing you at 576MB theoretically.
Apple reports that the Pismo should max out at 512MB. With 2 RAM slots and 2 256MBs that would be true...but with 2 512MBs in mine, I have 1 GB. Moral: Apple doesn't update the specs on their older machines on their Web site. -----Original Message----- From: G-Books [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mathew Peace Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 6:35 PM To: G-Books Subject: Exceeding the RAM max In my previous query on running OS X on the old clamshell iBooks, I have read 2 replies that say they have upped the RAM on their old iBooks to 512MB, when the max I have read from Apple is 320MB. How is it possible to exceed the factory maximum RAM? Mathew -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
