hmm, sounds like /125 or /133 memory.  i'll grab them if you don't want to keep
them, i think there may be free slots in the /125 and /133 boxes i have.

yeah, dataram was a third party memory maker.

well, they are only indirectly upgradable to G3, you would need to upgrade
the mobo to a 5400 or a 5500 machine and then you would be able to upgrade
to a G3 from there.  good like finding a 5x00 mobo fof it though, you are
probably best off looking for something else.  i'll bring one if you're still
interested though.
