Hi Edna

This means you can use either EDO DIMMs (yes, they do make them) or
SDRAM DIMMs. The SDRAM DIMMs would probably be cheaper and would
perform better than EDO DIMMs...so you definitely want SDRAM.

You can use PC100 SDRAM in your system...even though your bus runs
at 66 MHz. This would be a good choice since you could reuse your
memory should you ever get a new motherboard or system that runs
at a bus speed of 100 MHz.

Regards,
Bill
