Thanks to all for thier assistance.  I have done some looking around,
and it seems I can go 3 ways:

1)  Remove the pair of 256m chips and put in 2 512m chips

2)  Remove the pair of 256m chips and put in a 1G chip.

3)  Remove one of the 256m chips and put in a 1G chip.  Would that work
    to give me 1.25G?

I can get them from Crucial for about $50 for the two 512M chips or about
$41 for a 1G chip.  About the same from Kingston.   Somewhat cheaper
from Newegg, and still cheaper on ebay (looking only at the ones
marked "new".)

I think I will avoid ebay.  Can I expect any problems from Newegg, or
should I go the extra $ from Crucial or Kingston?  Any other suggested
dealers?
