DIMM RAM
I can verify that DIMM RAM does work in an IBM 755CX.
I have the DIMM adapter and 2 16 MB DIMMs. The adapter
plugs into the same socket as a single RAM card. The
DIMM adapter can hold one or two DIMMs.
(See page 140 - 147 of the CX User's Guide for info on
installing the adapter and DIMMs).
With this combo I have 40 MB of usable RAM as verified by
the Easy-Setup Test (it takes a LONG time to test 40 MB
as compared to the original 8 MB).
Warp also runs MUCH faster with 40 compared to 8, especially
with Connect, TCPIP, NFS, PMX, ...
I hope this clears up some confusion about DIMMs and at least
the 755CX. I have no experience with other ThinkPads.
