BIOS updates aren't going to affect what kind of RAM the system supports. Here are your choices, and I wouldn't recommend buying it from anyone other than Dell or Crucial. Since it doesn't look like Dell even offers memory for the CPiA any more, that narrows the field a bit.
I dont want to spend, or even have, the money for 53$ for 128mb of RAM.
Would it work if I just bought a PC66 128mb stick on ebay? The prices on ebay will cost about 20$ with shipping. I think I can get crucial memory on ebay for less than half of the price.
Watch out. When I upgraded the memory on my CPiA 366 I discovered it required low-profile (not to be confused with low-density) sodimms. They're shorter than regular sodimms, which physically won't fit in the space provided.
