Umm, if you can get a Quadra take it and run. Usually they can take 
much more RAM than Performas, have more NuBus slots ( which may run at 
a faster clock ) and so on. Also, you never know - maybe you'll stumble 
over a dead Q900 tomorrow.
IIRC the Q9x0 mainboards have 16 SIMM slots which can take up to 16MB 
each. Hard to find 36pin modules though but 4MB modules are extremely 
common which would still give you 64MB.

have fun
Michael
