If you are interested in selling any of the memory sticks let me know.

My business partner says I cannot use the 3004 256MB memory sticks from my
720 in a 170, YET the Installation and Upgrade Guide says I can.  I
currently have 8 3001 32MB memory sticks.  The manual I have is for V4R4.
Can I go above the 832MB max memory on these boxes by using the 3004 256MB
sticks?  I will have some of these after upgrading our 720 to an 820 and
adding a couple of 1GB memory sticks.  I will have 4 3002 128MB and 2 3004
256MB sticks which will give me 1024MB of memory if I put it all in the
170-2291 but the V4R4 manual show a max of 832MB.  ( 2x32 + 6x128).  I do
not trust my business partner any more.
