I have 192 MB of memory in mine. It can even run CSWB, but quite
slowly. I would recommend more memory and installing 8.3.
This, unsurprisingly, seems to be the recurring theme. So far, I have yet
to track anyone down who has memory for this system. I tried the person
that was recommended in one of the post, but he has long since parted with
the memory he was selling. Anyone here happen to have any to part with or
know someone who might?
thanks
Try "Memory World". ISTR buying Alpha compatible memory from them once
upon a time. Genuine DEC parts may be hard to come by but there should
be lots of "third party" memory available.
