It can see all 512 MB of a double-sided SDRAM, but the DRAM controller still can't address more than 768 MB. The other flaw in the Beige's DRAM controller is it MUST have fully populated SDRAM sticks, if these are high-density. The most cost effective Beige upgrade is three 256 MB, 16-chip (i.e., low density) SDRAMs, for a total of 768 MB. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
