I think I might have a 256 here from when I upgraded to a 512 in my 900MHz G3 iBook. Of course, you could take some digging around... :-) Valerie I talk, NaturallySpeaking types, I correct.

I'll send you my Jaguar (OSX 10.2) disks as soon as I get around to purchasing Panther (10.3), but that might be a while. If anyone else wants to cut in line, feel free. :-) For RAM, check macseek.com -- they do all the comparison shopping for you. Every time I've ordered RAM, it's always Coast to Coast (aka 1-800-4-MEMORY) that brings in the best quote when you factor in shipping. A 256 MB stick, which is as low as I'd go if I were buying on a tight budget, is (as of today) $39 + shipping. Shipping is anywhere from free, if you want to wait for US mail, to $24 for priority overnight FedEx. Or maybe someone has an extra RAM stick they feel like sharing? -- Larry Kollar k o l l a r @ a l l t e l . n e t "The hardest part of all this is the part that requires thinking." -- Paul Tyson, on xml-doc _______________________________________________ iBook mailing list iBook at listserver.themacintoshguy.com http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/mailman/listinfo/ibook --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
