It worked, believe it or not. Mac OS 9.1 saw it as a 256MB chip (high density vs low density memory issues that the early G3's had, I guess.) I ended up using the ridiculously large 128MB chip it originally had though, as Panther wouldn't boot at all with the larger chip. Mac OS 9.1 was running fine with it in place though. > The best you can do is two compatible 256 MB chips. You can look up > compatible chips over at OtherWorldComputing. com.

I'm tempted to leave things as is, use it till after Christmas and then sell it off and upgrade to something a little better (Pismo seems the way to go..)
