I just subscribed to this list as I need some advice.
Welcome to the best place for info i have found,(and they are
sometimes friendly)
I have a G3 500/384/20 Pismo with a disfunctional OEM DVD-ROM drive

If you have 384 ram fitted then either the top or bottom already has
128 fitted meaning you would need another 256 chip. to get 512.
Oops you are right, Vicki! That was a typo as I was looking at 256mg
prices - but looks like I might be smarter to go for 512 since I have
recently learned
If you are not bothered about the cosmetics fitting flush, and you
are also confident with the insides of the Mac and the drives.
One more thing - what do you mean confident, Vicki? This machine has
always worked beautifully for me - except for the OEM DVD-ROM drive which
has never worked

Hi All!
I just subscribed to this list as I need some advice.
I have a G3 500/384/20 Pismo with a disfunctional OEM DVD-ROM drive
running 9.2.2 which is networked to an iMac G5 (1.8/1GB/super-drive)
through a modem/router.
I read athttp://www.lowendmac.com/cwebb/05/1209.html that the pismo
- to run Tiger, would I be better off replacing the lower RAM slot with
another 128mg (maxing the machine out at 512mg) - considering that my
laptop is not my primary machine (just the more user friendly one!)
The Pismo maxes out at 1 gig, not 512 Meg.

Hi all,
I've been considering (when the funds are saved up) upgrading my Pismo's
'10GB' Toshiba drive. However, not wanting to waste the old drive (heck,
I still have my old 80 _MB_ drive from my now non-working IIcx!), I would
like to get one of the Travelstar 40GB+ drives and a FireWire
I want to put the 9.36 GB into the enclosure and the bigger
Travelstar inside my Pismo. Okay, nothing new here, right?
But the hitch is this - it's apparently cheaper to buy the 40+ GB drive
