Adding Memory
In the future you may want to install memory modules to expand the
functionality of your computer. Your system comes with 64 MB of installed
memory (64 MB x 1). By inserting optional memory modules in your
computer's expansion slot, you can increase the memory up to 256 MB (128
MB x 2). 64 MB and 128 MB expansion memory modules are available as
optional memory modules. For memory upgrades, use only PC-100 SDRAM
SO-DIMM (gold lead contacts). Sony computer supplies, accessories, and
peripherals can be purchased from your Sony-authorized dealer or by
contacting Sony at http://www.sony.com/accessories.
