Rep Power: 34  | Still got some PC133 of unknown stability if folks need any... 128mb and 256mb sticks IIRC |

Rep Power: 22 | 256mb sticks would still be handy for our older machines here - take them all up to 512mb... We're only on Win2K so 256mb isn't as bad as it sounds, but 512mb would nice! |

Rep Power: 0 | We save all bits like this. You never know when it'll come in handy. Often if RAM has failed or a HD is on it's way out, we've used it to keep things rolling along until we can get the parts needed. Once or twice we've left it as it is, and things have worked fine. |

Rep Power: 19 | @contink I'd love to have some PC133 256Mb sticks - I ordered some 512MBs to find out the machines (old DELLs) won't take anything bigger than 256MB. I'm after 5 and I can swap them for 3x512MB PC133 instead. Are you up for a swap? regards Simon |
