I have a similar situation... I have a 512K 7300, and would like to upgrade the memory. What is the best way to go about this... replace the motherboard memory, buy and expensive RAM board and populate it with lots of chips, what?? I am really new to this game.. (exp mostly with Vaxen), and any advice is much appreciated. -Keith =============================================================================== Keith O.
