I'm going to replace the optical drive in my sister in laws iMac G4
1.25Ghz 17". While I've got it taken apart I want to max out the RAM
and upgrade the hard drive.
The problem is the machine has two DIMM slots one under the base plate
and one on the mother board. They each use different memory

The Apple specifications claim that the machine can only use 1Gb,
512Mb in each memory slot.
Will this Mac really be able to address 2Gb, 1Gb in each slot?
I want to install the maximum memory that the machine can use, but I
don't want to waste money.
Thanks

The information at EveryMac says that although Apple officially states a max
of 1GB, unofficially it should be able to do 2GB:
