If you break the little tabs that clamp the SIMMs down, don't sweat it.  Just
make sure to seat it firmly, and don't shake your Mac.  If you've broken the
whole damn socket so it doesn't work, or you get memory errors (like the other
guy) that just won't quit, try calling the places that sell memory.

And let The Rest Of Us(tm) know what you find out.


p.s. someone posted the address of a place that sells sockets, a solder your
own kind of job, a month or so ago.
