[QUOTE="jonmichael23, post: 16607"] Thanks, Larry! I'm glad to hear that I can put a 512 stick in the empty slot. So the 64 is built-in and isnt an accessible slot? I see. I'm hoping that it has a 6 gb hard drive for I'll just keep it but If it has a 3.2 hard drive then I'll probably end up wanting to put in a 10 gb internal. I figured that I could put in a motherboard (the processor chip) from the 366 or 466, but I doubt I'll do that any time soon seeing as I don't have any money at the moment (I'm only 14 years old :rolleyes: ) but if the local apple retailer would be willing to installl it I might look for a 466 one on ebay (366 doesnt seem worth it unless it was a whole lot cheaper) Until then tho I'll have to settle with 300 mhz and 576 (512 stick with the 64 built-in) ram.My friend has a 333 mhz iMac wtih 288 mb ram and it runs panther pretty good (only thing horrible about it is minimizing just doesnt look cool its kind of choppy and just not the same) So seeing as I'll have double ram hopefully mine will run a little better then his does. Would 466 mhz make a big difference? Also, can you run jaguar with 64 mb ram? I know panther requires 128 mb but I thought I heard somewhere it was the first to require a certain amount of ram and I think I've heard of clamshell ibooks (on ebay) that have 64 mb and jaguar.
