It isn't hard. Two screws and undoing the floppy and scsi cable and power connectors to the drive and cd. Then lift and hold the housing with one hand and add the ram with the other. The housing can stay in place in the rear. It will just pivot up.

And he states that if it isn't sold for $2500 he is going to actually raise the price!
I don't know about that. For one thing the memory would be faster with the 72 pin ram on the 605. The video subsystem would likely be faster also on the 605.
Tom, this is a line pulled from his auction-
"I've done research to place value on this piece only to find that there is nothing compatible because of its origin (NASA)"
Sounds like he is stating it was used at NASA.
I have won computers and gotten stuff in surplus auctions that had NASA, Livermore Labs, Los Alamos stickers and stamps on them with the hard drives pulled. They were just stock machine with nothing out of the ordinary about them.
Thats it in a nutshell. No need to rip the thing apart. Its seeing all his ram. He just needs to turn on 32 bit addressing or better yet upgrade to 7.6.1 or 8.1.
I don't see anything special about this machine. I have bought several ex-NASA Mac's, Livermore Lab Mac's, Los Alamos Mac's and they have all been in a rather stock form. Somehow this guy thinks a Mac is special because they used it at NASA...
