You need a JEIDA DRAM card.  Pick up a Computer Shopper (or your favorite
PC rag), and look up all the ads that sell memory.  Many of them will have
a section specifically for IBM notebooks.  Look up TP750/755 and that's the
card you want.  Typical prices (at least when I bought my card a year ago)
were around $45/meg.

I believe there was someone on this list trying to sell a bunch of 4MB
cards not too long ago.

While I'm on the subject, can anyone recommend a place to buy a 16MB card?
I'm finding out that OS/2, TCP/IP, httpd, ftpd, and CSet++ are not happy
crammed into 12MB.  :-)  Anybody else running this much stuff?  I hear
CSet++ wants 16MB so I'm wondering if I should save for a 32MB card, or
just give up and buy a desktop.
