Look at the Quadra 650 in those specs, it is the same MB as the Q800 and WGS80 but has 80nS RAM specified. I've used 70nS in several Q800 and a WGS 80 with no problem. In fact I had put 60nS in them at first because of the incorrect info out there. But it wasn't necessary. Apple Spec and other sources are known for having errors. Apple rarely corrects errors of this sort, especially once the model is out of production. I suspect that Apple either made an error in the original spec for the Q800 & WGS80 or was being conservative and spec them the same as the Q840AV. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
