A quick query...
I'm soon to be the "proud" owner of a bargain basement Beige G3 266MHz. The owners - a student newspaper - were recently donated a iMac G5 and so no longer had any use for the machine. I'm pleased to read that it is highly upgradeable, but I am confused as to what kind of RAM the Beige G3 can handle. Certain websites seem to recommend purchasing PC100 ram, but I have also read that PC133 ram is still compatible, but would run at the slower speed.
The Beige requires single-density PC-66 or PC-100 SDRAM. PC-133 is almost always double-density, and a 256 meg stick will only show as 128 megs. If you can find a single-density pc133 stick, it will work.
50 pounds for 256 megs? OY! DMS has it for $35 US, you could max out that beige for what one stick will cost you...
