Dear Good Listers,

I was talking to someone who is selling a  powermac 8500 and was surprised to hear 
that it had two
256 mb ram dimms in it.  I did not know you could use 256 mb ram dimms in these pci 
powermacs.

Has anyone had any direct experience with 256 mb ram dimms in PCI-powermacs? If so, 
I'd like to hear
about it. In particular i'd appreciate any info that would be important to find out 
about this ram
before further entertaining the idea of purchasing a pci-powermac so-equipped.

thanks in advance for your thoughts.

There are no such things, afaik, as 256 MB dimms for those models. I'm not sure, but it may be impossible to make 256MB dimms in that form factor.


I suspect the seller is confused, and that it has 2 128 MB dimms for a total of 256 MB.
