So how do you explain the fact that it has an upper RAM limit of 1.5GB,
it only has 4 slots, the maths don't compute. I looked on MacTracker (a
cool util for the Mac) and on EveryMac and both say the same. In fact
EveryMac says it can accomadate 2.0GB but only use 1.5GB. I think
something fishy goes on, maybe it's the RAM.
