I've never opened a 630... is it easy to fit? There is a 4 mb simm soldered on, and you'll have to bin/sell/give away the other one. I think the maximum you can put in is a 32 mb simm. It is quite easy in theory but when I upgraded the RAM in my '630 a couple of years ago I managed to destroy the motherboard which cost about �300 to replace, and no I couldn't put a PowerPC one in. The moral is make sure you use one of those earthing straps - some memory suppliers give them away with the simms. Mike -- Please remove the xxx from the email address before replying
