It will take more than 32MB, 64 MB is What I recall.

It is above 8, It is not easy to upgrade, it's a major job, you wind up
taking
the whole thing apart almost, it's not something you want to do a lot of, I
get
the largest drive I could, and be done with it.

As it will work with larger hard drives and has more memory, just do it in
the
1100, and it will take care of everything. In a pinch you can use a Sony C1
usb floppy drive with it or a L100 PCMCIA floppy drive.

As to memmory it shows up on ebay from time to time, if you need it real
bad you might try dynamism, they still have a 64MB listed at $199

If you can live with the japanese os that's the best option, there really
isn't
many drivers for the english os.
