Thanks all of you kind souls who provided advice on adding RAM to my Lombard 333. From what I gather, replacing both the low profile lower socket and upper socket with 256 MB modules should work just fine to run OS X, but 512 is probably the maximum for this machine. Unlike the Wallstreet, den

So my bottom-line question: Is it wise or risky replacing the bottom socket low profile 64 MB module in my Lombard with a 528 MB unit, or should I be more convervative and replace it with a 256 unit? I think you can safely update the memory on your Lombard. You just have to make sure that it's a
