two empty.
- The system maximum memory is 640K.
- Typically if the computer has 265K ram, it requires one 128K and one
256K memory card to raise it to 640K.

use the 384K memory card made by STB Systems.

must have the higher output power supply.
- computers made with the Back Lit Screen should have the higher output
power supply.
