You mean they know far more than Apple says? Because obviously Apple know more about their own products then someone else. And besides PSX memory controller (used in 6400/6500) is one of the Apple own ICs - that's why no one can get information about it apart from what Apple made public.

Anyway, what I meant was that they don't give you any explanation "why" they just say it won't work and the maximum limit is 128/136 ant that's it. Again looking through Apple's TIL, HW developer notes and other docs - I can't find any evidence that those limits imposed by controller - rather that by making proper DIMMs or increasing number of memory slots.

If Mac Gurus are making their own memory modules and not just re-selling (in any case their modules are more expensive than Crucial ones for instance) - why didn't the tried to make 128MB DIMM which complies to that memory document I mentioned before? Or DIMM extender?
