I recently upgraded my Mac Plus to 4 Megs of ram. I didn't bother booting it before the installation of the extra ram and can't remember how long it took with 1 meg. It seems to take a long time to boot. More than 30 seconds before it scans for a drive.
If you're impatient like I am, then force the Plus to bypass the RAM test: press the mouse button just before flipping on the power switch, and hold it down until it starts the rest of the boot procedure. Speeds things up quite a bit. -- Prof. Thomas H.
