If you have a 1400/117, they shipped with 8 on the board...up to the 1400/166, that shipped with 16 on board....if you have 8 on board, I doubt that there is 8 & 16, could be wrong though...why don't you wait till you install OS 8, and check Profiler...if you go on eBay and search 1400's...there is a vendor...Omni, I think...they seem reputable, I never bought from them, but they have an exchange policy for that very reason of ram fitting in the piggy back slot...32 meg chip for $69...
