I put in 512MB of memory... the DIMMs were about 1/8-1/4
of an inch taller than normal, and it was a tight fit.

With an 800Mhz CPU, the boxes are great. Though I have
heard of them overheating, I haven't seen it in my
box, and I was using it with Linux to do a lot of
file I/O CPU work (compressing, splitting files, etc.
etc.)
I've heard you have to tweak a jumper for lower
speed chips.
