When I get a round tuit, the LC III will be wearing 132MB of RAM, thanks to a purchase that I made a few years ago, similar to one that Dana reported in these forums only recently. Unfortunately, the LC III's RAM card gets in the way of a DayStar PowerCache card, for which I have an LC PDS adapter, so no go there.
