I have a MAC IIsi which has only four SIMM slots, which means that at present I can have a maximum of 17 MB (4 x 4MB SIMMS + 1MB) on the computer. Will I be able to pop in 16 MB SIMMS when they become available? Or are there hardware limitations on memory access? This is an important question for a budding power user of the future.
