<SNIP> I've heard theories saying that everyone is upgrading their old PCs to get ready for y2k, and of course, they're upgrading to the most modern stuff, K6-2, P2 and P3 processors, which require PC100 ram, so if the people are willing to pay twice what the ram normally costs, why not raise the prices... <SNIP> The sad thing is that ALL ram is now built to PC100 specs...when they test it, if it is not OVERSPEC they bump it down to SDRAM. What I am saying here is that you can occasionally (actually more often than not) get away with using non PC100 RAM at a 100MHz system speed. Just make sure that you get a good name brand (Kingston, Crucial, etc). I have several friends using 66MHz SDRAM on high end machines. One friend has 512MB of SDRAM running on a PIII/600 system....no ill effects seen, it is EXTREMELY fast. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ************ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxchix.org
