I found 4 GB max for the machine from the link below. A lot of times
Dell's info is dated to the time of manufacture. The info I got was
relevant to the Service tag number. Dell may use mobo's from any
number of manufacturers for a particular product and they can be
different.<br>

Performance will be marginally better with two sticks, but
considering<br>
the overall specs of the system, probably not enough to be
noticeable.<br>
<br>
If I can find where I put it, I did have a couple of
sticks lying around<br>
that I'd be willing to let you borrow to test. Heck, if I
find it, and<br>
it works for you and you make me a reasonable offer, I'd
even sell it to<br>
you for a good price.<br>
