Sure!  Just publish it to a folder on your computer, then upload the

 Yep, Tony -

 Right on the money again - the 1Gb module shows up as 512Mb like you

 So far, so good - my ol' Mac's now maxed-out and running like Marion

 and 3D files with no problems

 I've noticed the newly-added RAM is ECC, rather than non-ECC as
 specified in my manual, but this doesn't seem to be causing any
 dramas . . .
 Any idea what the implications of this might be?

 PS Thanks for the Crucial link - very informative, cleared up many
 other issues I've been unsure of in the past

No problem, glad I could help out.

It has been my understanding that the ECC shouldn't cause any issues,  
since the non-ECC logic board will ignore the extra error correction  
bits, basically turning the stick into non-ECC.

Enjoy the extra headroom! :)

 Would appreciate any advice.

It certainly won't fry your Mac, as PC3200 is backwards compatible  
with PC2700.  However, it is likely that the 1GB stick will only be  
seen by the system as 512MB, which is still great as it's a freebie,  
and if you've got an open slot to fill.

You can show hidden files with this app: http://www.box.net/shared/d31o3bnamn

Re: RAM Question

PC3200 are also (generally) backwards-compatible with PC2100, which began to
be used on the first G4 MDD model (867MHz).  The PC3200 will downclock to
PC2100 speed.  However, Mac OS X tends to be quite particular about RAM
timings, so your mileage may vary.
