I could get 2 more MEG for the Model 30 286, but why would I need it? I believe it goes on the mother- board. I think it's expanded memory (but it's probably extended memory). What would it buy me? Better Lotus someday? Non LIMs lotus? Maybe, gee I could use bigger files? Is this baloney. What am I missing? Thanks for any insights, Greg Harrison
