I am NOT sure of the following statements. If I am wrong, I believe that lots of folks will correct me. I believe that the biggest RAM a 6116 qaccepts is two 32MB chips. The 6116 is not a good machine to uprgade. I thiknk the max RAM is 64MB (plus 8MG soldered onto the motherboard). If it runs as it is, use it for typing. Keep an eye out for a 7500 or a 7600, for about $35 to $50. Then upgrade the 7500 or 7600. From Data Memory Systems: "Macintosh Performa 6116CD 60MHz PowerPC 601 Memory Specs Standard Memory: 8 MB (non-removable) Maximum Memory: 72 MB Memory Expansion: 2 sockets (1 bank of 2) 32MB Module M3373LL/A DM34 006 $11.99" -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
