The 2 MB of RAM in an LC is soldered on to the motherboard, not on a SIMM. So no, it can't be removed.GORDOOM

If there was extra SIMMS in the LC though, the answer would be yes.~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit

There aren't 2MB of RAM soldered onto the mobo of my LC!
I have a chip in a special ram-socket thats marked "FOR USE WITH MAC LC ONLY"! Thats my 2MB chip!_________________

That would be your vram (note the special ram socket)  LC's and LC II's use 30 pin simms, in pairs. 2 megs of ram is soldered on the mobo. Artillery Commander/Engineer, 68kMLA

BTW, you probably can't tell the RAM soldered on unless you know a lot about ICs - it isn't a stick of RAM soldered in like a fixed 'slot', just normal black ICs on the mobo.~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit

So, you're telling me that that is that elusive VRAM socket that I've been looking for??? COOL! Although I've come to find that my previous problem was caused by the limitations of the monitor, not the computer._________________
