I have a performance 700. I just bought a 256meg dimm from Crucial per Ed
Neth's advice and it works fine. You can just order memory for a Dell
Optiplex GX1 (350mhz-600mhz) and it'll work (and, as it turns out, my son has
a GX1, so that's nice if I ever need to swap memory outta this machine and
into my son's GX1)
Anyhow, the part number is CT32M64S4d7E.16LT -
256mb 168 pin DIMM 32mx64 SDRAM PC133 module.
$95 shipped when I got it in February.
