[G4] PC100-2225 vs PC133-xxxx

[JWarren371 at aol.com]

OK.   Just looked at the Quicksilver spec sheet.    It does indicate a 
minimum RAM Speed of 100 MHz.   

One more novice question:   The spec sheet says 3 RAM slots and 1.5 GB Max 
RAM.   However, the system profiler indicates 4 RAM slots (one empty).   I'm 
runnning Mac OS X 10.3.7 (7S215).   Is there any benefit to filling that fourth 
RAM slot?

Thanx.
