Short answer: Not on the motherboard. Not so short answer: You can fake up to 30 MB with RAM Doubler 8. Longer answer: Sonnet makes the Presto Plus, a 3-in-1 PDS card that includes 32 MB of memory, ethernet, and an '040 CPU. This is the only known way of using more than 10 MB of RAM with the stock motherboard. Longest answer: If you can locate an LC 575 motherboard, that will provide you with both a more powerful CPU and the ability to add a heck of a lot more memory. There's a simple ResEdit hack to modify your System file. Once done, you'll be running a 512x384 at a faster speed than you would have believed. My #2 son recently did this to his Color Classic. He's having fun with the old computer again. :-) -- Dan Knight, president, Cobweb Publishing, Inc. <http://cobwebpublishing.com> <http://lowendmac.com> <http://digital-views.com> <http://digigraphica.com> <http://lowendpc.com> <http://reformed.net> Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
