Hi Robert, Are we talking about a G3 Beige Desktop? Iıve had 2 and I had way more ram in them than that.
G3 Beige Desktop There are 3 DIMMS slots and each can be filled with up to a 256MB DIMMS in each slot. Total 768MB. PC100 or PC133 backward compatible it doesnıt matter. I think the original mobo used PC66. If youıre purchasing new, Iıd get the PC133 so you can use it in a G4 if you upgrade someday. Best Regards.
