The IIsi has four simm slots and 1 meg soldered.  All of the simms must be
the same size, and all of the slots must be filled.  The following
configurations are therefore possible:

SIMM number & size		Total Memory

0				1 meg
4 @ 256K each			2 meg
4 @ 512K each			3 meg
4 @ 1 meg each			5 meg
4 @ 4 meg each			17 meg
4 @ 16 meg each			65 meg

The 16 meg simms are about $2000 each, so you might want to consider just
buying a nice new IIfx instead. :-)

For some good information on simms see the April 1991 MacUser.

Cheers,

Alan
