Both slots can hold at least 256MB. So, you can have 512MB. That's what I have with my Pismo. Make sure that you buy your memory from reputable resellers that guarantee their memory with OS X or that you can at least return it for a refund if it doesn't work. I have been very satisfied with Data Memory System <http://www.datamem.com/> for all the memory I bought from them. They have good prices and good service. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] creationism n.: The (false) belief that large, innovative software designs can be completely specified in advance and then painlessly magicked out of the void by the normal efforts of a team of normally talented programmers.
