    Original iBook max Ram

    OK, OK, OK.... So How much RAM can I install in the machine, and still be able to use. For example, if I put in a 512 strip will I be able to use all 544 MB? or will X only see 288 MB? I know I can physically put in a 512 MB strip of ram, but will it work?:rolleyes: :D
