craig, you're right.
However, I know (I've owned in excess of 800 of the 1xx series Powerbooks)
that the 165 can NOT accept any RAM from any other Powerbook, other than a
1xx series.. it will only max at 14mb.. it has 4mb soldered on the main
board, and can accept up to an additional 10mb card. Anybody selling you
anything "more" is probably selling New York real estate on the side (ie the
Brooklyn bridge)...
The 190's RAM is entirely different design, and will work only in 2
Powerbooks (the 190c/cs, the 5300c/cs/ce).
If you have questions about RAM, you mmight look at our site--we've got RAM
broken down by the machines that it will fit.. Not exceedingly explanatory,
but it does show which PB's are similar. We're working on a "Powerbooks for
Dummies" page that explains the main configuration differences between
Powerbooks.. Hopefully will launch that this month...
Thanks,
David
