Can one have 3MB ( four 256K and two 1M SIMMS)? No. SIMMs are installed in pairs in SE's and Plus's because the data bus in those machines is only 16 bits wide (each SIMM accounts for 8 bits). The Mac II, on the other hand, has a 32 bit bus, and thus memory has to be installed 4 SIMM's at a time. Jeff White Drexel University - ECE Dept. rutgers!bpa!drexel!jeff
