Simply not true. I have configured many 1400 with a 16 and a 32.
Some Ram module are not stackable at all, they lack a pass thru connector.

Yes, but you'll have to go to the USR (NOT 3Com) web site to find the

You will most likely need the all-encompasing V.90 Modems script.

originally assumed that it was because RD is a VM, although much quicker and more
efficient than Apple's VM. I since have heard of many people having trouble with
PBs that had Sonnet G3 upgrades refusing to run VPC.
You must have always gotten the good modules and I the bad. I have never been
able to get 32s to stack with 16s. I also have never had a problem with the

Hmm...probably, though it might be too thick, that sounds like an
17-18mm drive.
Electronically, it will work fine...Apples Drive Setup will format
virtually any 2.5 ATA drive out there.
The 2.5 inch form factor is a set size, in terms of width and length,
though mounting holes will vary.
modern powerbooks are limited to 12mm or less, iirc.
Heh but the PowerBook G4 is 1 inch thick while the PowerBook 190cs is 2.2
inches thick
