I'm looking to buy some of the rare 64MB RAM/Memory for my ThinkPad 701c Butterflies ... anyone selling?

If not, I could then still use 2x 32MB RAM chips to upgrade my 701cs Thinkpads.

I have 3 64MB modules, they are all 144-pin (72-pin dual in-line package).
Don't know if these are suited for the 701c/cs

1x 64MB/100MHz Mitsubishi MH8S64BBKD-10L, datasheet http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet- ... D-10L.html
2x 64MB/66MHz 144-pin Micron MT8LSDT864HG-66283, datasheet http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet- ... G-662.html

I have several 32 meg chips that are definitely for the 701. Right now I have no fully working motherboard to test them in but they were not throwing off errors a few years ago and now they are in some cases. They are actually a notchless form factor 72 pin fast page I believe; smaller than the later EDO and SDRAM modules. PM if interested.

hwattys, Thanks but I've already got 2 x 32mb chips, if I can't find some 64mb ones I might take you up on that.

Anyone know if these 64mb chips RBS has will work with a 701c? Perhaps some pictures will help...

Here's a pic of the RAM slot:

RBS, does this look like a matching fit with what you have?

I think the ones RBS is talking about look like this:

Correct, mine won't fit.
