The U5 and U10 take Buffered ECC EDO,
the PC 365's take Unbuffered EDO, ECC or Non-ECC.
they will take Dual PPro's up to 512Mb Cache, and have 4 DIMM slots.
VRM's for them will cost you $25-$50 depending on new or used condition.

I have two of them, they are sweet machines, and FreeBSD runs like a scalded
dog on them.
Compgeeks ( www.compgeeks.com ) occasionally has the memory for them up for
sale.
