DO NOT TRY AND PUT THEM IN THERE!!! YOU'LL FRY IT!

The 4400 series has specific ram to that series... It doesn�t take standard
PowerMac RAM because the pins on PowerMac 5V RAM are slightly out of line
with existing 168-pin PC RAM. LOOK FOR 4400 SPECIFIC RAM!!!! you can pick it
up on eBay cheap. The 4400/160 can take up to 32MB in each slot and the
4400/200 can take up to 64MB in each slot (and 32MB in the first slot) which
gives it a ceiling of 160MB RAM. Kingston make 4400 RAM but don't sell it
any more. 

Ebay!
