Hi, I purchased 4 - 256MB SODIMMS at various times for my Rev B iMac. I had never had any problems with 32MB, 64MB or 128MB dimms. I always bought ram for iBooks because it was significantly cheaper and it always worked. After the 4th SODIMM that acted as 128MB, I "bit the bullet" and bought a 256MB from whatever vendor was the cheapest at "http://www.ramseeker.com";. At the time, 256MB for iBooks was $25 and 256MB for iMacs was $40, but this time it worked. As long as you pay the price for the iMac ram, it will work. It appears to be about $55 now for a 256MB: http://www.ramseeker.com/scripts/sortPriceShip.php?modelId=16&sortSize=256mb&shipping=true Good luck, Gary Fortman -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
