    Hello. I'm planning to upgrade my RAM chips on the thinkpad R32. Currently I have two 256mb chips installed. I want to upgrade to 1GB total. To do so, I'll need to replace both chips with 512mb sticks.

    I haven't cracked it open yet, but before I do, I was wondering if both RAM slots are in the same place (hopefully in the easy access door on the bottom of the laptop), or are they in different locations. Would I have to remove the keyboard to get to one of the chips?

    Thanks. :)
