Re: Best Linux for a BW G3?

I'm sure anyone who has experience with this will know this already, and many might even say I'd told you so, but I'd like to confirm that using PC133 CL3 ECC RAM in a G4 QS2002 -- DOES NOT WORK. I was suspicious that I might be able to use one stick of non-ECC RAM and then the other two sticks
