Easy, perhaps, but unfortunately, untrue. The 4*8 SIMMs, however, are all 256K. I've seen plenty of non-Apple VRAM modules that were 256K that had 4 chips, and I've seen a couple 512s with only two chips. So number of chips, as much as Apple would like you think so, cannot differentiate the parts unless they're Apple-branded. -- the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> Software Archive <ftp://download:jmug@;ftp.jmug.org//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/> <http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/> _________________________________________________________________ -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
