you can still get 512mb PC-133, Crucial still knock it out. Getting a bit pricey though, I flogged one on EBay for £40 the other week.

Taw-
That's quite a bit, and its increasingly difficult to find; newegg doesn't even stock it to my knowledge.

Can I still get just another 256 chip for a total of 768 and have a stable system?

JD.... if you can do it in a hurry, only 9 left for $78 before shipping
try here: Geeks.com

I've bought from them before. They are reliable.

$78 US? blimey it really is going up in price, must be getting to the end of the stock. nearly all mine's gone too, I have a couple of Hynix 128s, a couple of Micron Tech 128s and a Samsung 128, all PC-133 SD-RAM; everything else is DDR, I have a bit of EDO, FPS, and 30-pin lying around, but I think i passed most of EDO onto FD a couple of years ago.

Having said that, I have plenty of PC-133 stuck in the kids PCs, and I've got a Gb on my server which is P3 based. I suppose I could be persuaded to part with some if I was suitably recompensed....

*sigh* I have a ready source available for RAM. Getting a third chip of 256mb is not a problem. The problem is, will it work to have a total of 768mb of RAM and still have a stable system?

yes.

JD, I was pointing you to a supply of 512mb sticks. That way you have a full gig.
But never mind.

Sorry, didn't mean to offend, Indy. I've got a new in-law will a whole stack of spare parts, so I'm hoping to not have to pay for it if at all possible. I appreciate the consideration.
