Yes, there are 8 DIMM slots on the board. There is no soldered on memory. It's best to use identical DIMM, all EDO or FPM, rather than a hodgepodge of sizes. I'd pull the 64 and 32 MB DIMM, which are likely slower than the new 128 MB anyway. For faster memory performance (app. 10% in my two PCI Macs) you can interleave the new DIMM. Without looking at a board I forget the exact numbering scheme, but you install the DIMM in corresponding slots (A1 and A2, B1 and B2,...). -+-+-+- RPM -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
