Probably VMEM if you can configure it to save yourself. I never needed it, one of the major boons of the OS not to. Then again I can manage with just 96 MB ..   ;-)

Thanks. Maybe you can manage with 96MB of RAM, well I can`t manage with 128MB. I want to edit LARGE images with layers.

I`m getting conflicting reports. How much RAM can my BlizzardPPC board take? 128MB or 256MB as I have just been told? I always thought 128MB was the maximum.

Has anybody used a SIMM slot adaptor? For taking 2 SIMMs in one slot.

Blizzard PPC can take 2 x 128MB SIMMs, thus total 256MB.
This is a undocumented feature.

Thought so after a bit of research. Does anybody know of a place to get x2 128MB sims, VERY sheap?

I`ve managed to get £33 not including alsorts of Postage and stuff. Thought this order would be a tad annoyingn as its all over fax by the sounds of it. Surly theres better places, who do proper ordering?
