Hey is it easy to install RAM and an Airport card into the PB G4 500?
How many ram slots are there? is there any built in ram?





(BTW, how do I get a confirmed address on Paypal..)

I installed RAM and an airport card on a Ti400. You have to take the bottom of the case off for the airport card, so it can be a little nerve wracking. It isn't hard, just be careful not to bend the back when you are putting it on/off.

RAM is easy. Just open up the keyboard. The ram slots are right below, with nothing blocking them. Much easier to change in/out than on old Pismo, which required processor card removal to get to bottom slot.

Hope that helps.

Cool thanks...
I just have to ask...

1) How many ram slots are there?
2) Do they allow the 512MB sticks or only 256 and lower?? Cause I know some laptops can't allow more than 256.
3) Is there any built in ram?

There's 2 RAM slots in the PowerBook you're looking at.

Each slot can hold a 512MB RAM stick without problems, giving you a total of up to 1GIG of RAM.

There' no built-in RAM on the motherboard like there is with the 12" AlBook.
