Well, much has been said about where to get cheap SIMMs - The CHIP MERCHANT - but how to install them is yet another matter. The CHIP Merchant sends no installation instructions. That is where keeping back issues of your favorite computer magazine come in handy. In the February 1989 issue of MacUser there is an article entitled 'The Persistence of Memory' on page 140. The article explains how to make the upgrade very well, but not how to open up the Mac+, or SE. Well, you need a 9 inch allen wrench which can be obtained from Mac Connection for $8.00. The other small problem is that, no matter what your upgrade is, you must move around a resistor on the mother board which may require soldering. If your upgrade is for more than 2 Megs, then you can just cut loose the resistor since for that configuration it must be removed anyway. corrie@fiu.edu (internet) corrie@servax (bitnet) *** I speak only for myself... No one else has my mind - to do otherwise. ***
