   Sorry for the delay Rudolphe, I haven't used it a lot lately as the   
   battery has given up in the dallas. Will have to sort it out as I'm   
   rearranging my den ;-)   
      
   With a 64mb EDO installed it registers as 32mb with the most current   
   version of the bios (software inside the flash) yet with older versions   
   it pulls up the full 64mb. I will get it up and running again in the   
   next week and let you know how I go.   
      
   Cheers
