Before I parted with mine a couple of years ago I'd installed a total of 512 in it, and it worked quite well. In fact, I traded it to a friend and it's still running great with system 10.2. IIRC, you'll need a low profile RAM for the bottom slot. Seth --- Seth Austen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sethausten.com -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Can I put a 256 MB stick on the bottom slot without problems? TIA, PETE. - Maybe yes, maybe no. I have heard some grumbles with some brands of 256MB DIMMs. Just be sure to get a low-profile DIMM for the bottom slot. There isn't room for the normal sized one. Best if seller specifies the DIMM is for the Wallstreet bottom slot. Ken -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Here's a clip from an earlier discussion in the thread Adding RAM to WS II: Nils Said: On Fri, May 14, 2004 at 10:59:11AM -0400 or thereabouts, Dan K wrote: As many others have explained, the issue revolves around chip density. For specific details on what will work, read Apple's Wallstreet devnote: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Hardware/Developer_Notes/Macintos h_CPUs-G3/PowerBookG3Series.pdf Nice! It appears that these machines support a chip density of 8M with a width of 32 bits. Even though that configuration isn't listed, it could be the next logical step. The pdf also states that the machine is to use SDRAM memory with a rating of 100MHz or greater. This would make sense as a recommendation because the 250 and 292MHz systems run on a 83MHz system bus. Where as the 233, 266 and 300MHz systems run on a 66MHz system bus. To make it less likely for customers to run into memory speed related issues, just tell them to use PC100. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
