Computers that are running PC-33, 66, or 100 can all take PC-100 or PC-133.
You can't go tthe other way and give PC-33 to a machine that shipped with
PC-133.

Yes, but it still takes PC100 memory. I have a 256MB low profile PC100 
in my Wallstreet's lower slot, and it's not a problem. I think that in 
some cases, computers with a certain bus can take faster memory upgrades.

Lombard memory upgrade problem

2002-09-03 Thread Radek & Gabina

Hi,
I'm a new here and coming for help. I have a PowerBook G3 Lombard 
running at 333 MHz with 64 MB RAM. I would like to upgrade RAM but all 
my attempts failed. I ordered 256 MB stick from Mac dealer specially for 
this computer and got it replaced twice with no effect. Computer is 
running fine with 64 MB original Apple memory.but when I put 256 MB 
memory in it starts freezing. I tried all combination of sticks on 
daughter card with no luck. I tried checking temperature but it was also 
in normal when computer freezed. Company was really kind and I could 
return 256 MB memory.
Looks like it is freezing when memory usage is around 100 MB no matter 
how many sticks are actualy inside. Tonight I'll try to play with 64 MB 
sticks I got from work. They are PC100 low profile SO DIMMs borrowed 
from a Dell laptop.
Any comments or suggestions are welcome.
Thank you very much,
Radek

The major name brands cost more, often twice as much as the off brand.
Lots of people have no problems with the cheaper off brands.  Some folks
have had problems that required replacements.  But I'm sure it's happened
with name brands as well, though probably not as often.  Name brands
often have a lifetime warranty.  Off brands may or may not.  Then it's
up to the dealer for warranty policy (if any).  You're best bet is to
buy from a well-known and well-respected dealer that knows how to take
care of its Mac customers.  Even if you don't buy the more expensive
name brand RAM, good dealers will provide good warranties.

Speaking of memory...how cheap is too much for memory?
Is it all the same or do some suck less than others?

Just wondering...
