Nothing desirable. BTW if you can swap memory between a IIsi and a 7300 I
want to watch, one is 30 pin SIMM the other 168 pin DIMM.
It sounds like the original poster only found (1) SIMM - and wouldn't want
to fund for 3 more as those 16Meg 30pin'ers are still quite costly (prolly
a lot more than that aforementioned DIMM) and given the choice, he wouldn't
want to fund that much purchasing 3 more SIMMs, for a machine that prolly
wouldn't use 1/3 that in normal use.
However, if he does think he can shoehorn a 30-pin SIMM into his 7300, I'd
sell tickets! ;^>
(I just stumbled across (4) 16Meg 30-pin SIMMs and I thought "what am I
going to use these for... until this thread reminded me of my MacIIci that
I want to set up as a network print server...;-)
Anywho, have fun!
