Hi David. There are (lots of?) places on the 'net with tutorials and pictures and even QT movielettes that show how to upgrade iMacs. (RAM and HD, mostly.) I'm in a bit of a rush right now but here's one place as an example. http://store.yahoo.com/memx/inin.html I think that's specific for your machine, and just details the user-accessible install. I think most of the on-line RAM dealers have similar and maybe better info. Also Macworld (on-line) has good tutorial info, I just can't locate it readily at the moment. But this should get you started. (I'll look further later if necessary.) > 2) Is it safe to presume that if the user-accessible memory is >designated as a 144-pin PC 100 CAS2 SO-DIMM that the other slot >would be the same? Sorry, can't confirm that for you. (I know for a 333 MHz, one DIMM has to be low profile, the other doesn't.) > 3) Is there any way to tell -- without the benefit of an advanced >and costly program like TechTool Pro -- where the 512 MB of RAM that >is installed might be located? In pre-OS X - Apple Menu/Apple System Profiler/System Profile/Memory Overview. > 4) Is the Apple spec or the Ramjet spec correct? Can this >machine support up to 1 GB of RAM? Maybe. Not likely, AFAIK. Usually the reputable RAM dealers have the best current reliable info on RAM upgrades. hth - Mary -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
