I purchased a new Motorola Starmax 3000 minitower computer in December. It is a wonderful machine, very fast and reliable. But anyone considering the purchase of one should be aware that it has some special requirements in regards to memory. It uses a 60ns 3.3v EDO DIMM for memory expansion, and it has two open slots. This memory configuration is not your standard DIMM, and may not be available from all vendors. Also, the manual that comes with the computer says that it can take a 4mb SGRAM module video memory expansion....but I have found out that they are not available yet. It can also take a 2mb VRAM module, but for 32bit color on 20" monitors one needs the 4mb SGRAM module. If anybody has info different from above, please don't hesitate to correct me. -- Gene E.
