Point of confusion: I've got a 3000/200 with 160MB RAM & I know everyone says the first slot is single bank, but my ol' Max has the bottom slot (3rd slot, I presume) listed (printed next to the slot, on the board) as the single bank & that's the way I installed the buggers. 'Get Info' reads 160MB fine. (Did have to switch the 64MB'ers, of different brands, around in the top two slots once to get them to work correctly, though). So, I wonder if StarMax had different arrangements of the RAM slots within the same models over time, or do I just have my numbering arrangement upside down. One would think #1 slot would be at the top, right, wrong????
