Physical size doesn't make much difference as long as you can still get the SIMM angled in there properly. Some SIMMs don't work due to clearance issues, but most are fine. Only way to find out is to try it. >2) Same question for VRAM. I clearly see the VRAM SIMM in the 605 (what >an easy box to work on), but I am not sure where the VRAM slots are on >the 650. They're the two slots that are shorter than the RAM :) >3) Are there any sites that describe how to work on the 650?

Check the manufacturer's WWW site - they usually have drive ID jumper configuration charts, which vary from model to model. -- the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> _________________________________________________________________ -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
