I'm adding additional RAM to a computer for someone else.  It has an AOpen MX36LE-UN motherboard, and the provided manual is unclear about what the maximum memory capacity of the board is.  So I went to their site, figuring it'd be authoritative.  The site was also unclear; it says the maximum memory is 1GB, but also says that DIMMs from 8MB to 256MB are supported, yielding a maximum of 512MB.

"No worries," I figured, I'll just ask technical support.  They'll know."

So I just got the answer back from AOpen.

They don't know.

Yup, you heard it here first:  They don't know the correct memory capacity of their own product.  Pathetic, innit?

I'm just glad it's not my computer.  And that I don't own any AOpen motherboards.  And don't ever intend to, now, either.  They go into the lamer file along with MSI.
