*Pretty* sure, Malcolm. We suspected that too, but the System Profiler
doesn't even mention the built- in- it lists the whole 32 megs as
"expansion" with no mention of the soldered (is that usual behavior
when adding expansion RAM?)
The card has stamped on it:

There's also a sticker that says 32MB, but I know that could be a
mistake.
I'm sorry, I don't knwo what you mean by "chips".
Anyway, thanks for responding so quickly,
Cathy
