Adding memory to your computer
Your Macintosh PowerBook comes with at least 8 MB of RAM. You can
increase your computer’s memory by adding a RAM expansion card. You can
find out how much memory your computer has by choosing About This
Macintosh from the Apple (K) menu in the Finder.
You can purchase memory upgrades from Apple-authorized dealers. For
complete instructions on installing a RAM expansion card, see Appendix C.
Your Macintosh PowerBook also supports virtual memory, a feature that
makes use of hard disk space to provide additional RAM. You computer was
developed to take advantage of the virtual memory feature, and comes with
virtual memory turned on. For information on using virtual memory, see the
“Memory” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
