What information about you ram are you after specifically? If you have a 
pentium, it is likely that their is two chips, since those boards require
that (so if you have 16, there's two 8meg simms).

If you want the speed in nanoseconds of you chips, the easiest way is to
pull one of them out, check the last digit on one of the chips. If it'
s a seven, their seventy nano, if its six, their sixty. Can't tell you
about EDO ram tho - never seen any myself.
