I'm recently picked up a Qube 2 with 16MB RAM & a 20GB Maxtor hard drive
on eBay. I've spent some time on Google poking about to find these
answers to no avail. Any information anyone cares to share would be
appreciated.
0. The user's manual states that I can upgrade this appliance to
128MB or 256MB DRAM. Does anyone have specifics as to what kind of
memory will fit? Suppliers?
1. I thought I should be able to readily identify the MIPS chip on
the CPU board, however of the three major chips seen on this board, I
see is a QuickLogic FPGA, a chip from Quantum Effects Devices, & another
from Galileo Technology. Where is the processor?
Thanks for any & all information.
Jim
