Hello, James...
I am currently running 128's & 64's in my 9600-350 (G3-500), to yield 1 GB
of RAM...   No VM necessary! (or possible!)

If you install them in pairs, they will supposedly "interleave" & run
slightly faster. Can't comment on the 32's, sorry...  Started off with 64's
in it new...   

There are 12 RAM slots, so lots of room. I have a couple empty currently.

Good luck!

Pete
