for a NeXTstation color. what can be done memory-wise for a NeXTstation
color? i've 32mb now, i assume 8 slots of 4mb simms? what are my options?
thanks, very much

Purchase a newer color machine ;-)

32 MB is the limit of the first color stations.

I've heard this stated before, but I've also heard that it's merely a
form factor problem: the slots are too close together for 8MB SIMMS
to fit in them.

Is this truly the source of the limit, or is it not possible to
address the contents of the larger SIMMS for some reason?
