I don't know where they picked up that EDO RAM won't interleave in a 7500. I have two 128MB EDO DIMM in my 7500/g3/250, interleaved just dandy. EDO is treated as FPM in the 7300-9600 anyway, though whether it is the case or not I've read that EDO is manufactured to a higher standard. -+-+-+- RPM -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
