If you the guts out of the case to get to the upper slot (as shown
at
<http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/iMac_g4/imacg4_takeapart.html>),
you will technically void the warranty. Make absolutely sure to use
the thermal paste when reassembling, as shown.
If you really want to go to 1GB, order the 512MB - 1 DIMM option
for $250, and add your own DIMM to the bottom slot later. I think
your best deal is to order it with the stock 256MB DIMM and add your
own 512MB DIMM, if you can live with a "meager" 768MB total.
