Vaughan, I got the RAM from Computer Plus in New Mexico in 2000 and I guess I was lucky to find it even at $5 per SIMM. Maybe I should look them up and see if they have any more?? Apparently I can go to 64 MB but that would be the end of it. The downside of these parts is the need to re-seat them a couple of times a year when the RAM fail chimes just will not go away no matter how many times you restart. I've always blamed this behavior on the lack of gold on the fingers but that's just a guess.
I used to run a PMMU in mine until I found the SIMMs. The most interesting part was getting the Mode 32 issue straight. Dave Q.
