I am in the rpocess of getting a DP G4 867. To save money I was going to get it with just 256mb of PC2100 DDR ram. I was then planing on adding more ram myself later on.
I would like to know if there's anything special I need to look for when buying more ram afterwards. Can I buy PC2100 ram used in Intel based PCs or do I need Mac specific ram?
Since I live in Mississauga, I was thinking of buying from Infonec: http://www.infonec.com/mboard.htm
They have 256MB PC-266 DDR for $95.00 and 512 for $185. Is this the right ram or should I look somewhere else.
If anyone knows of where I can buy Mac friendly ram in the Mississauga area, please let me know.
Also, is 256mb enough to have OSX run fine. I'll also be running apps like Photoshop and Premiere.
Thanks.
