I want a USED (or new) stick of 128mb RIMM ram (lol, rimmram rimmram) for an Intel system w/P3-550 cpu. I want to put XP on it and only have 128mb in there...someone must have one of these lying around?

Pricewatch has these listed for $30 and up, shipped, new, but thought I would try picking up a used stick here, first.

RIMM's either have to be installed in pairs or, one stick w/ a terminator in the other. Not sure if it's really a terminator, but it's a little card that looks like a RIMM, but ain't.

i have 4 rimms on my machin....RIMM (rambus inline memory module) fancy for saying rambus ram...depends how your mobo wants it...and yes you have to have them installed in pairs..for the empty banks...you need to fill them with C-RIMMS

I know this. Got one 128mb RIMM and a terminator thingy. I am looking for another single 128mb RIMM. I'm sure SOMEONE has a single 128mb RIMM somewhere! Maybe someone who upgraded from 128's to 256's?
