Hi,

I recently picked up an Apple IIC. I took it apart to try and fix
keyboard issue and noticed there is a RAM board under the keyboard (i
assume so as it looks like one). The IIC is a ROM3. Is there any easy
way to figure out how much RAM the IIC has?

Most (all?) IIc RAM boards were based on 41256 chips, so counting
memory chips should give you the capacity directly:  8 chips, 256KB;
32 chips, 1MB.

Hi Michael,

ok the memory board is upside down, so can't see :). I have to take it
apart again at some point so will take a peek then. (unfortunately the
IIC suffered some damage in transit...)

Quite pleased as wasn't expecting a ROM03 IIc or one with a memory
board...then again doubt i will ever use the extra memory lol.

If you use Appleworks or copy a disk with Copy II Plus, the extra
memory will be used automatically.
