IIRC, the 225 came with a PC100 64mb registered ECC dimm. IIRC, the one
we put in was 256mb PC100 registered...but I don't remember if it was ECC
or plain. I think it may have been plain. We had it laying around from
some server upgrade parts that didn't get used and I figured I'd try it
since we wanted more than 64mb. It worked, so we ran with it.

I realized that. They can't certify existing NPE's for more memory if
they wouldn't already work with it. They just don't technically support
it yet.
