  You mean 1GB in each of the 2 slots (rather than leave one of the
500MB modules in and replace the other with a 2GB module)?
  Tnat sounds the safer bet, I suppose.

  Presumably you refer to the case where one 500MB module is left in and
the other replaced by a 2GB module (my 1st choice, except for the
'which slot' question, which I hope someone will be able to rule on...).

Many thanks for your input, Bob; much appreciated!
